UN chief urges Iran 'moderation' after missile tests

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today urged Iran to act with caution and moderation after Tehran carried out missile tests over two days this week.
"In the current political atmosphere in the Middle East region, and so soon after the positive news of the lifting of sanctions against Iran, the secretary-general calls on the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran to act with moderation, caution and the good sense not to increase tensions through any hasty actions," said UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric.
