Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal was unable to confirm earlier reports about the transfer of Iranian ballistic missiles to Russia.
On Saturday, September 7, CNN reported that Iran allegedly transferred short-range ballistic missiles to Russia. Representatives for the Iranian Foreign Ministry subsequently denied those reports. The official representative of the department, Nasser Kanaani, called the information about the transfer of missiles unfounded.
"So far, I have no concrete fact to prove that the Russians have received these missiles and are using them,” the Ukrainian Prime Minister said.
Earlier, Shmyhal said that Kyiv was hoping to see representatives of more than 150 countries at the second "peace summit”. The first such event was held from June 15 to 16 in Switzerland. More than 90 countries of the world took part in the summit, but Russia was not among them.
