WASHINGTON — Brian Hook, the US special envoy on Iran, cited Iran’s continuing development, testing and transfer of ballistic missile technology as a key flaw of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that President Donald Trump withdrew from in May.
Speaking this morning to the conservative Hudson Institute, Hook repeated many of the US administration’s previous critiques of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), from its sunset provision to its failure to address Iran’s support for terrorism and militant proxy groups in the region.
