He once again repeated the previous claims of the American officials and said: "We have discussed extensively in the last six months about the growing security relations between Russia and Iran and about the provision of drone technology from Iran to Russia, as well as the fact that this is a street It is very two-way, we have talked.
 
"Russia, in turn, provides the military and security items requested by Iran."
