Iran: Guided Weapons

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent assessment he has made of the capabilities of Iran’s ballistic missile programme.

Answer

​We have significant concerns over Iran's ballistic missile programme, which is one of the largest in the region. We continue to take action with the international community to encourage Iran to play a transparent and constructive role in regional affairs, and have repeatedly urged Iran to comply with UN Security Council Resolution 2231's call for Iran not to develop nuclear-capable missiles.
