It is based on State-owned as well as private companies and benefits from domestic research capabilities. |

In its Conclusions of 23 March 2023 and 29 and 30 June 2023, the European Council condemned the continued military support for Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine provided by Iran.

| (15) | Russia is using Iran-produced UAVs in support of its war of aggression, which violates the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine, including against civilians and civilian infrastructure. The Iranian State-sponsored programme for the development and production of UAVs therefore contributes to violations of the UN Charter and of fundamental principles of international law. This programme is run by the Ministry of Defence and Armed Forces Logistics of Iran and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which are both sanctioned by the European Union, and includes the procurement, development, production and transfer of UAVs, notably to Russia. It is based on State-owned as well as private companies and benefits from domestic research capabilities. |
