The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) has asked what the Iranian people have gained since the nuclear deal.

It has been almost a year since the nuclear deal but “The situation with Iran has not gotten better, and the plight of the Iranian people grows worse.”

Ali Safavi, a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), published his thoughts on the aftermath of the nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers last summer. He pointed out that the regime has done at least five provocative ballistic missile tests despite the UN Security Council resolutions.

Top officials, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, the ultimate authority in all matters of Iran’s foreign and domestic policy, have commented on each test. Recently Khamenei said that: “Those who say the future is in negotiations, not missiles, are either ignorant or traitors.”
