China rebuilds Iran’s missile program

China is rebuilding Iran’s missile program, cnn reported yesterday. Despite the reinstatement of United Nations sanctions, European intelligence sources told cnn that Iran has been importing sodium perchlorate, a main ingredient in missile propellant, from China since September. This revelation comes just as President Trump is touting an “amazing” meeting with Xi Jinping. Iran may have suffered serious setbacks during the American-Israeli bombardment of its nuclear program in June, but as Joel Hilliker wrote in the aftermath, assuming that Iran is now finished “is wishful thinking.”
