Iran is walking back any suggestion that its production of missiles could be on the negotiating table as a concession to the West.
In an interview that aired earlier this week, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif told NBC News that if the U.S. wanted to discuss his country's missiles it needs “first to stop selling all these weapons, including missiles, to our region.â€
Zarif's remarks were seen as a possible opening to talks to limit Iran's production of missiles.
