Ukraine is not susceptible to intimidation and aggressive rhetoric from Tehran, as over the years of the war with russia, the country has developed a strong immunity to any external pressure. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in his latest interview with i24news.

Commenting on the latest insults from the Iranian regime, the Head of State noted that such messages have long become part of the everyday background for Ukrainians. According to Zelenskyy, over the four years of full-scale invasion and over the 12 years of russian aggression in general, he has heard such threats too often to perceive them as something extraordinary.

"Look, nothing new. I have heard many different messages over these four years. We are not afraid of any such statements, because we live in this reality every day - at least for the last four years, and for the most part, for all twelve. Therefore, this is not news for us," Zelenskyy emphasized.

The President added that Ukraine is clearly aware of all the risks, but the fear of another "red line" or blackmail by the Kremlin's partners will not affect the country's state policy and defense capability.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the head of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of the Iranian parliament, Ebrahim Azizi, stated that Ukraine, through drone assistance, has turned its territory into a legitimate target for Iran.

Iran also confirmed military cooperation with the russian federation and China.
