Council Regulation (EU) 2024/1338 of 14 May 2024 amending Regulation (EU) 2023/1529 concerning restrictive measures in view of Iran’s military support for Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine
The Council of the European Union considers that in view of the gravity of the situation, in response to Iran’s military support for Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine and the supply of unmanned aerial vehicles and missiles to groups in the Middle East and the Red Sea, “which undermine peace and security”, new restrictive measures should be introduced with regard to Iran. Regulation (EU) 2023/1529 is amended to impose asset freezing measures against individuals and entities involved in Iran’s missile program or supplying unmanned aerial vehicles or related technology to Russia or armed groups “in contravention” of UN Security Council Resolution 2216 (2015). (Note: The quotation marks are the literal wording of the European legislation).
It is also appropriate to prohibit the export, sale, transfer or supply to Iran of further components that could be used in the development and production of unmanned aerial vehicles.
