Iran’s missile programme is non-negotiable, says Rouhani

DUBAI (HRNW) – Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on Monday that Tehran s missile programme was non-negotiable and that U.S. President-Elect Joe Biden is “well aware of it”.

Biden s victory has raised the possibility that Washington could rejoin a deal Iran reached with world powers in 2015, and he appears to see a return as a prelude to wider talks on Iran s nuclear work, its ballistic missiles and regional activities.

But Tehran has ruled out halting its missile programme or changing its regional policy, and instead has demanded a change in U.S. policy, including the lifting of sanctions and compensation for the economic damage caused during the U.S. withdrawal from the nuclear accord.
