UNSC Iran talks yield no result

United Nations, New York, March 18, IRNA

Iran-UNSC-Nuclear
The members of UN Security Council (UNSC) here Friday ended their 90-minute talks behind closed doors on Iran's nuclear program, failing to reach agreement on adopting any statements.

France and Britain made revisions in the previous statement to narrow the gap between the stances of China and Russia on the one hand and that of the United States on the other. The changes, however, were not accepted.

Representatives from China and Russia said they should consult the adopted changes with their governments and announce the results afterwards.

The five veto-wielding states of the Security Council, the United States, Britain, France, Russia, and China, have held four rounds of unsuccessful talks in recent days.

Russia and China are resisting a resolution from the other three members.

The US Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, who takes every opportunity to talk against Iran, told reporters the next session is slated for Tuesday.
