Iran Economic Recovery Will Accelerate Its Missile and Drone Development

(Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Lt. Col. (ret.) Michael Segall - Without connection to the nuclear talks, Iran will keep developing its missile program as it has done so far with considerable success, despite the weapons embargo. Iran claims its missiles were not intended to carry nuclear warheads and are, therefore, outside the scope and jurisdiction of the Security Council's resolution. Iran's expected economic recovery, along with its growing confidence after holding its own against the world powers and continuing to build up all the elements of its nuclear and missile programs, will likely accelerate its missile and drone development along with the transfer of missiles to the terror organizations that Iran supports all over the Middle East.
