Iran Tests a Ballistic Missile, and the White House Tells Us Not to Worry
It hasn’t violated the nuclear deal, just a UN Security Council resolution.

In response, the White House press secretary scrambled to explain why the test shouldn’t raise any concerns that Iran will also violate the nuclear deal itself. Michael Makovsky writes:
