House Democratic Rep. Eliot Engel says Iran’s missile program continues to destabilize the region
1/20/2016
House Foreign Affairs Committee senior Democratic member, Eliot Engel (N.Y.) blasted Iran regime for its missile test and said the regime is a direct threat to our national security as well as to our allies in the region, a statement from his office said.
’Iranian leaders should be on notice that the nuclear deal won’t excuse their continued dangerous behavior.’
In October, Iran tested a precision-guided ballistic missile capable of delivering a nuclear warhead, in defiance of a UN ban.
The U.S. Treasury Department unleashed sanctions against 11 people and companies involved in Tehran’s ballistic missile program Sunday.
The Iranian regime responded to the latest US-imposed sanctions by vowing to continue developing its ballistic missile program, State-run Fars News Agency reported on Monday.
A statement issued by the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that Tehran would not allow the United States to unilaterally stop it from upgrading its “defensive and deterrent missile program.”
