Washington, D.C. -- Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued the following statement today in response to missile tests conducted today by Iran:

"Iran's provocative test launching of long-range missiles is detrimental to a resolution of the issues that separate Iran from the international community. Widespread condemnation from around the world should send a clear signal to Iranian leaders that such actions hinder diplomatic efforts to bring stability to the Middle East."
