Please try again later {{ /verifyErrors }} The White House is promising to unveil new sanctions on Iran in the coming days in retaliation for its arms sales that have bolstered Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and threatening a "swift” and “severe” response if Tehran moves forward with selling ballistic missiles to Moscow. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said Thursday that the U.S. will be “imposing additional sanctions on Iran in the coming days" for its efforts to supply Russia with drones and other technology for the war against Ukraine. “We have not seen any confirmation that missiles have actually moved from Iran to Russia,” Kirby said, but said that at the same time, “we have no reason to believe that they will not follow through.” He said that if Iran moves forward, “I can assure you that the response from the international community will be swift and it will be severe." And we are prepared to go further if Iran sells ballistic missiles to Russia.” The U.S. is set to announce a new set of sanctions Friday against Russia that is timed for Saturday's second anniversary of the Ukraine invasion and the death last week of outspoken Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny in a Russian penal colony.
