Iranian Parliament to Reject Restrictions on Iran's Access to Ballistic Missiles

(Fars-Iran) "The [Iranian] parliament will reject any limitations on the country's access to conventional weapons, especially ballistic missiles," senior Iranian parliamentarian Seyed Mehdi Hashemi said Saturday. He underlined that restrictions on Iran's access to ballistic missiles are among issues that should be revised in the UN Security Council's draft resolution. Earlier Saturday, Commander of the IRGC Maj.-Gen. Mohammad Ali Jafari underlined that there are still some concerns about the agreement and the relevant draft UN resolution. Iranian officials have underscored that the country's missile program is non-negotiable, stressing that the talks are limited to the nuclear issue. Also, Deputy Commander of the IRGC for Political Affairs Brig.-Gen. Rasoul Sanayee Raad reiterated that "Iran's military capabilities, including access to ballistic missiles, are no bargaining chip" and that negotiations "will be merely confined to nuclear issues."
