Iran May Provide Russia with Short-Range Ballistic Missiles

Iran reportedly may soon provide Russia with short-range ballistic missiles in addition to armed drones for use against Ukraine.

Without completing the UN snapback, the international arms embargo on Iran will remain expired and UN restrictions on missile transfers will expire next October. The proposed nuclear deal with Iran, which remains on the table for Tehran’s acceptance, would lift sanctions on sectors of Iran’s economy tied to its missile program.
