UNITED NATIONS, UNITED STATES - The United Nations has blocked a controversial bid by the United States to reimpose international sanctions on Iran, with the Security Council saying it could not proceed with the disputed move.
The Trump administration accuses Teheran of failing to comply with the terms of the historic 2015 Iran nuclear deal, and is demanding the Security Council reimpose sanctions on the Islamic Republic. Another said that, with the sound rejection of the US bid by almost the entire Council,"normally the matter is closed"."We reminded members of our right under Resolution 2231 to trigger snapback, and our firm intent to do so in the absence of courage and moral clarity by the Council," said US ambassador to the UN, Ms Kelly Craft.
The exclusion of this option by Indonesia was welcomed on Tuesday by the majority of Council members.
