This applies to three people and a company connected to Iran's drone manufacturing that had their assets frozen.
- We are taking swift action against Iran, which supports Russia's war in Ukraine, said Council of Europe President Charles Michel, according to Al Jazeera.
Since mid-September, Ukraine's military has shot down 220 Iranian drones, the BBC writes.
Russia has also highlighted Iran's involvement.
This when a person from the Russian Ministry of Defense exposed himself to Russian television.
- When he didn't think the camera was on, he asked the presenter not to ask about the drones "because we all know they are from Iran", explains Paasikivi.
Therefore, sanctions on Iran do not bite
The Kremlin firmly claims that it uses only Russian equipment in its war of aggression against Ukraine.
But there are reasons for Iran to support Russia with weapons, says Paasikivi.
- They (Iran) have made a calculation and see that it is worth incurring additional sanctions, what Russia can offer is worth more.
Hear from Lt. Col. Paasikivi about what Iran stands to gain by supporting Russia.
