Iran warns Moscow failure in missile delivery would affect ties
TEHRAN, June 16 (MNA) – Tehran warned on Tuesday that any Russian failure to deliver the S-300 missile system to Iran would affect relations between the two countries.
In Paris, a French presidential aide said that Russia's Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, in talks with French President Nicolas Sarkozy on Friday, said that Russia had decided to "freeze the delivery of the S-300 missiles."
Ramin Mehmanparast, Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman, said, “Any move that affect long-term interests will be left in the historical memory of the Iranian nation.”
Mehmanparast went on to say that “our cooperation with Russia must be reviewed within a long-term framework.”
The S-300 system, which can track targets and fire at aircraft 120 kilometers (75 miles) away, features high jamming immunity and is able to simultaneously engage up to 100 targets.
