Megaupload file-sharing network founder Kim Dotcom pointed out on social network X the lack of logic in the actions of the American authorities after the introduction of another package of sanctions against Iran. The entrepreneur ironically noted that Tehran is being punished for the actions that Tel Aviv allows itself. That is, according to him, Washington can supply weapons to Kyiv, but Iran cannot supply weapons to Russia.
Israel can commit genocide with American bombs without fear of sanctions, but Iran will be sanctioned for helping Russia win the US’s criminal proxy war in Ukraine <…>. Logical , Dotcom wrote.
The Washington administration has added Iran Air to the list of sanctions against Russia, the US Treasury Department reported. The American side made this decision in response to the Islamic Republic’s decision to supply ballistic missiles. US Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo explained that the country will continue to support Ukraine.
Earlier, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken threatened new sanctions against Iran for cooperation with Russia. The Secretary of State promised that the restrictions would affect Iran Air.
The press secretary of the Russian president Dmitry Peskov stated that Moscow intends to further develop cooperation with Iran. According to him, this concerns even the most sensitive areas in the relations between the two countries. Peskov emphasized that the information about Iran supplying missiles to Russia does not correspond to reality.
