Zitat:Iran votes to boost military defence by $500mhttp://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-40916827
Iran's parliament has voted in favour of boosting investment in its missile defence and foreign operations programmes by more than $500m (£386m).
The bill, which received overwhelming approval, is in response to the latest round of US sanctions against Tehran. The US imposed sanctions after a ballistic missile test in January. [...] Of the members present, 240 parliamentarians out of 244 voted in favour of passing the bill.
It proposes that the government allocates an additional $260m for the "development of the missile programme" and the same amount to Iran's Quds Force, a branch of the country's Revolutionary Guards Corps, the official state news agency Irna said.
