UK foreign secretary slams ‘sordid deals’ between Russia, Iran

LONDON, 11 December 2022, (TON): Britain’s foreign secretary has criticized “sordid deals” between Iran and Russia, saying they threaten global security.

James Cleverly’s comments came following the release of information by the US that shows Iran has become one of the Kremlin’s top military backers.

The information has highlighted the extent of Iran’s military support for Russia in its offensive in Ukraine, which includes the provision of hundreds of drones used to kill Ukrainian civilians.

Cleverly said “Iran is now one of Russia’s top military backers; their sordid deals have seen the Iranian regime send hundreds of drones to Moscow, which have been used to attack Ukraine’s critical infrastructure and kill civilians.”
