TEHRAN, Apr. 11 (MNA) – Foreign Ministry Spokesman Jaberi Ansari who was speaking in his weekly press conference announced the implementation of first phase of S-300 missile contract between Iran and Russia.
Hossein Jaberi Ansari also reaffirmed the upcoming visit of EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini who is scheduled to arrive in Tehran on Sarturday. Mogherini will head a 7-member delegation of High-ranking EU officials.
In response to a question on delivery of Russian advanced defense missile system S-300, of which the first part is reportedly delivered to Iran through Caspian Sea, Jaberi Ansari confirmed that the first phase of the Iran-Russia contract on the systems is implemented; “we had already announced that despite several times of change in time of delivery, the deal is on its path of implementation and today I should announce that the first phase of the agreement is implemented and the process will continue.”
UN Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura will arrive in Tehran Monday night ahead of the start of a new round of intra-Syrian talks on April 14, added Jaberi Ansari.
“The Islamic Republic, based on its policies, has always backed a peaceful solution to Syrian crisis and welcomes UN efforts in this regard,” he added.
On Saudi Arabia’s stances toward the violation of Iran’s nuclear deal and other international treaties on sanctions against Iran, he said “Saudi’s positions are beyond the country’s capacities, since it is standing against the international will and global agreements. The Saudi regime is taking these positions because it is pursuing the course of its interests in violation of signed agreements.”
