White House: Iran missile test violation of UNSC resolutions
(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) The White House said there are "strong indications" that Iran's test of a new precision-guided ballistic missile violated a U.N. Security Council resolution.
White House, press secretary, Josh Earnest late Tuesday said that such violations are nothing new.
Earnest said the Iranians have "almost serially" violated international concerns about the country's ballistic missile program.
"We have seen Iran almost serially violate the international community's concerns about their ballistic missile program," Earnest said.
He stressed, however, that those violations are "entirely separate" from the historic nuclear deal reached between Iran and world powers.
The U.S. intends to raise the incident at the UN, "and then we'll continue to do this for any and all Iranian violations of UN Security Council resolutions,"he added.
Iranian state TV reported on Sunday that the Iranians successfully test fired a new guided long-range ballistic surface-to-surface missile.
The U.N. Security Council prohibits Iran from undertaking any activity related to ballistic missiles that could deliver a nuclear warhead, but Iranian officials have pledged to ignore the ban.
