Archived Pictire - Iran has warned it will revise its cooperation with
the UN nuclear watchdog if the UN Security Council imposes sanctions
against Tehran over its contested nuclear programme, AFP reported.
"Imposing sanctions and adopting a resolution will as a result prompt a
reaction from Iran, and in this case we will revise our cooperation with
the agency," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini
told reporters.
LONDON, December 11 (IranMania) - Iran has warned it will revise its
cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog if the UN Security Council
imposes sanctions against Tehran over its contested nuclear programme,
AFP reported.
"Imposing sanctions and adopting a resolution will as a result prompt a
reaction from Iran, and in this case we will revise our cooperation with
the agency," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini
told reporters.
Hosseini did not specify what cooperation with the International Atomic
Energy Agency (IAEA) could be hit, but such a move would most likely
restrict UN inspections of Iran's atomic facilities.
"Our decision will depend on the decision" of the five permanent
Security Council members plus Germany, which have been examining Iran's
nuclear case.
Hosseini said Russia was seeking to tone down the text of the draft
resolution, which he said bore the marks of the "interventionist
policies of the United States".
He criticised the three major European powers for "choosing a wrong
path... I hope they will change their policy and return to a policy of
negotiation."
The six major powers were to resume talks in New York on Monday on
proposed targeted UN sanctions against Tehran over its refusal to halt
uranium enrichment.
The sanctions would bar trade with Iran in goods related to its
ballistic missile programme and nuclear industry, and impose financial
and travel restrictions on people and entities involved.
The six powers have been trying to thrash out agreement on the text for
weeks, with Russia and China -- which have strong economic interests in
Iran -- seeking to water down the European-proposed draft.
Iran vehemently rejects US charges that it is seeking to make a nuclear
weapon, saying it has every right to the full nuclear fuel cycle in
order to supply civilian energy.
