Pompeo: arms sales embargo against Iran must be renewed

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called on the UN to renew an arms sales embargo against Iran.

"Because of the flawed Iran deal, the UN arms embargo on Iran will expire in one year," he wrote on Twitter.

According to him, countries like Russia and China will be able to sell Iran sophisticated weapons. "The Iranian regime will be free to sell weapons to anyone. This will trigger a new arms race in the Middle East," Pompeo added.

"The Security Council must renew the arms embargo," the Secretary of State stressed.
