Moscow May Vote for Anti-Iranian Punishment Measures, if ....
US State Secretary Condoleezza Rice warned the Iranian authorities that
in case they continue the implementation of their nuclear program,
the Country will have to face the punishment measures that were
approved by the UN Security Council and applied against Korea.
AFP informed that Rice stated that she expects UN Security Council
to begin elaboration of the resolution on the Anti-Iranian punishment
measures already this week. Rice stated that countries like Korea and
Iran create main threats against the spreading of the anti-nuclear
regime.
On Saturday, UN Security Council unanimously adopted the bill on
anti-Korean resolution and initiated punishment measures for the
nuclear tests carried out by Korea on October 9. The American try to
make UN decide to take punishment measures against Iran as well. Iran
continues concentration of uranium in its territory.
The representatives of the European Union carried out 4 stages of
negotiations with the Iranians in order to stop the concentration
of uranium. The negotiations yielded no positive results. Thus, EU
decided to submit Iran's "nuclear case" to the UN Security Council
to secure the implementation of the Anti-Iranian resolution.
USA and EU fear that the nuclear program of Iran will help the Iranians
create nuclear bomb. As for Russian and China, these countries are
against the anti-Iranian punishment measures and they may use their
right for veto.
Russia stated yesterday that it may vote for the anti-Iranian
punishment measures at the UN Security Council, if USA
reconsiders its decision concerning "Soukhoy" and "Rusboronexport"
Russian companies. In August, the US State department applied
punishment measures against these two Russian companies for their
military-technical cooperation with Iran.
