March 17, 2011 STRATFOR SITREP
France on March 17 expressed concern over Iran’s test firing of an orbital ballistic missile, noting that the U.N. Security Council (UNSC) prohibits such tests, KUNA reported. The test, if proven true, constitutes a new violation of UNSC resolutions, the French Foreign Ministry said in an official statement.
Iran is launching satellites, this means they can reach anywhere in the world with a nuclear warhead.
