US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield called on the Iranian authorities not to supply ballistic missiles to Russia, and the DPRK leadership not to provide weapons used by Wagner's private military company.

“Since August, Iran has handed over hundreds of UAVs to Russia in violation of Security Council Resolution 2231.. Russia is using these Iranian drones to strike Ukraine's energy infrastructure, depriving millions of Ukrainian civilians of electricity, heat and critical services in the middle of winter,” Thomas-Greenfield said, speaking at a meeting of the UN Security Council.

US spokeswoman said Iran is still considering selling hundreds of ballistic missiles to Russia. She also added that according to the US, the DPRK last month sent Russia infantry rocket launchers and missiles for use by Wagner fighters and plans to continue such deliveries..

“We condemn the actions of the DPRK and call on the DPRK to stop these deliveries,” Thomas-Greenfield stressed, urging Iran and the DPRK to adhere to UN Security Council resolutions.

Recall that the shelling of Ukrainian infrastructure in November, the UN called the escalation of the war.

U.S. officials reportedly said in December that Wagner, a Russian private military company founded by Yevgeny Prigozhin, received a self-paid shipment of weapons from the DPRK, which should strengthen the occupying forces to continue the war against Ukraine..
