Iran: Sanctions can't slow missile advancements
None
Iran's defense minister says the country's missile development shows that UN sanctions are ineffective and won't hinder defense programs.
Gen. Ahmad Vahidi says Iran's missile program is "indigenous" and has no reliance on foreign countries. Saturday's comments come amid 10 days of war games in Iran's latest show of military might. Vahidi's statement was posted on the official website of the Revolutionary Guard, Iran's most powerful military force. (AP)
