Putin signs decree to lift ban on S-300 delivery to Iran

PanARMENIAN.Net - Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree, lifting a ban on the delivery of S-300 anti-missile rocket systems to Iran, the Kremlin said on Monday, April 13, according to Reuters.

Russia says it canceled a contract to deliver the advanced missile system to Iran in 2010 under pressure from the West following UN sanctions imposed on Iran over its nuclear program, but world powers and Tehran have now reached an interim deal on curbing Iran's nuclear work.
