Iran’s decision to build up missiles program’s budget
Iran’s decision to build up missiles program’s budget is logical
Cairo - Mena
Head of Russia's Federation Council’s international affairs committee Konstantin Kosachev said the decision to increase financing of the missile program, adopted by the Iranian parliament, is a logical response to the US tougher sanctions, TASS reported.
"This is quite logical. This is what happens when one country - the US - believes it may do anything, and others - nothing," Kosachev said.
"The world may be stable only on the basis of equal rights of the countries," he continued, but this does not exempt countries from their obligations for the international community.
On Sunday, Iran’s parliament supported the bill on additional $520 million for the ballistic missiles program and for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The parliament’s majority voted for the bill, which was a response to the US new sanctions against the Islamic Republic.
On July 18, the US Administration announced putting on a blacklist 18 organizations and persons, supporting the Iranian ballistic missile program, Iran’s military purchases and IRGC. In response to this, Iran complained to the UN Security Council about the US sanctions and accused Washington of breaching the nuclear deal.
