"Rouhani says Iran will keep producing missiles, state TV reports
DUBAI: Iran will continue to produce missiles for its defence and does not consider that a violation of international accords, President Hassan Rouhani said on Sunday in a speech broadcast on state television.
Rouhani spoke days after the U.S. House of Representatives voted for new sanctions against Iran's ballistic missile programme, part of an effort to clamp down on Tehran without immediately moving to undermine an international nuclear agreement.
He also meet the head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog in Tehran, who again vouched for Iran's compliance with the 2015 accord that curbed its nuclear programme in return for sanctions relief, which has drawn fire from U.S. President Donald Trump.
"We have built, are building and will continue to build missiles, and this violates no international agreements," Rouhani said in a speech in parliament.
The United States has already imposed unilateral sanctions on Iran, saying its missile tests violate a U.N. resolution, that calls on Tehran not to undertake activities related to missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons.
Iran denies seeking nuclear weapons and says it has no plans to build nuclear-capable missiles."
The USA is trying to stir trouble in Iran too?
Honestly this is weird. It has Fat Kim to handle n has time to play with Iran? Hmm...
This is another country that does not listen to Trump's USA though for a very different reason. In Fat Kim's country, he is the law. The religion, an imposed one, is him!! In Iran, there r believers of a religion n that religious authority is what gives them strength. A strength so emotionally connected that it will overpower the natural instinct of fearing the supposedly superpower USA!!
So, pick your battle Uncle Sam. No win for u here!!
