UNITED NATIONS: The United States on Thursday accused Iran of carrying out three missile-related launches in defiance of UN resolutions and urged the Security Council to"bring back tougher international restrictions" against Tehran.
The United States called on the council to"join us in imposing real consequences on Iran for its flagrant defiance of the council's demands and bring back tougher international restrictions to deter Iran's missile programme." In the letter, the acting ambassador said the Dec 1 launch was"designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons" and that the space launch vehicles use technologies that are"virtually identical and interchangeable" with those used by ballistic missiles.
