NPOV[edit]

This article lends undue weight to a certain side. First of all, accusation of Iranian non-compliance in missile tests is a matter of legal dispute, because the resolution "calls on" –but does not require– Iran to cease test of missiles that are "designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons". While Iran argues that the missiles are not designed to be nuclear-capable [1], Russia says a "call" upon a country cannot be categorically violated [2]. Secondly, the June 2020 report of UN Secretary-General (rejected by Iran [3]) says the arms claimed to be Iranian "may have been transferred in a manner inconsistent" (note to the word may) with UNSCR. These two instances were in a section entitled Iran defection and later Iranian non-compliance which asserts the disputed claims as a fact, favoring a certain view. Moreover, Iran has insisted that the US has breached UNSCR 2231 with its withdrawal from the JCPOA (the same act being described as "gross violation" by Russia [4] and similarly viewed by China [5]) and has filed an ICJ lawsuit against the US, which (so far) led to an interim order in favor of Iran. These are not mentioned in the article at all. The article also dedicates two paragraphs to remarks made by American officials (Pompeo and Abrams) about the "snapback" without mentioning that the US-drafted resolution was quite unanimously (except for the Dominican Republic) rejected by the security council [6], and the American one-side deadline was rebuffed by the rest of the world (including European allies of the US) [7]. That being said, this article has some work to do to reflect a NPOV. I am currently focused on another subject at the moment and unfortunately cannot fix this issue, so I tag the article.
