White House: "Strong Indications" Iran Missile Test Violated UN Resolution
(Dow Jones) The White House said Tuesday that the U.S. has "strong indications" that Iran violated UN Security Council resolutions with its ballistic missile test over the weekend. However, White House press secretary Josh Earnest said the move wouldn't complicate efforts to implement the nuclear deal with Iran. "This is altogether separate from the nuclear agreement that Iran reached with the rest of the world," Earnest said. State Department spokesman Mark Toner said Tuesday that the U.S. planned to raise Iran's missile test at the UN Security Council.
