Iran nuclear crisis: France orders Tehran to stop missile tests
2017-09-26
FRANCE has ordered Iran to stop testing missiles after Tehran announced on Saturday it had successfully launched a new ballistic missile with a range of 2,000km despite being told by the US to stop all nuclear-related activities.

France said it was extremely "concerned" by Iran’s ballistic missile test and urged UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to launch an investigation into the controversial launch.

French foreign ministry spokeswoman Agnès Romatet-Espagne said in a statement: "France asks Iran to cease all destabilising activity in the region.

"France has asked Mr Guterres to carry out a full report on the launch .... and will consider with its partners, notably European, the means to obtain from Iran the cessation of its destabilising ballistic activities."

Mrs Romatet-Espagne added Iran was in "clear violation" of UN resolution 2231 and urged Iran to "respect" the terms laid out in the 2015 nuclear deal.
