Clinton vetoes Iran sanctions bill amid missile concerns
President Clinton vetoed the Iran Missile Proliferation Act overriding automatic sanctions for foreign entities aiding Iran's missile program. He argued the measure would apply sanctions too broadly and could target minor violations, complicating cooperation with Russia to curb illicit technology transfers. Lawmakers pushed to override the veto, warning of risks from Russia and China supplying Iran.
