Iran has unveiled a 1,400-km ballistic missile and a new cruise missile, amid tensions with the US. Iranian Defense Minister Amir Hatami said, surface-to-surface missile has been named as Shaheed Qasim Sulemani.
It has a firepower of 1,400 km and a cruise missile called Abu Mahdi has a capacity of over 1000 km. On the other hand, the United States has demanded a ban on Iran again.
Questions can also stand on the credibility of the United Nations
US President Donald Trump has said that the US will seek to reimpose all UN sanctions on Iran. It is believed that this move is not only expected to make the Trump administration more lonely but also may raise questions on the credibility of the UN Security Council.
Let me tell you that the American effort to ban Iran's arms possession indefinitely last week has failed. So now America wants to pursue its interest through diplomatic means.
It is a 'snap back', Trump said. The US President said that his Foreign Minister Mike Pompeo would go to New York to notify the President of the Security Council that the US was adopting a snap-back approach to the Council resolution recognizing the nuclear deal.
Trump said, Iran will never have nuclear weapons. In the snap back, the parties involved in the agreement may seek re-imposition of all sanctions previously imposed by the UN and this complex process cannot be stopped by veto. Earlier, Russia and China opposed the vote on the proposal to ban Iran, while 11 members were absent.
