A resolution proposed by the United States to enhance monitoring of Iran’s nuclear sanctions was rejected on Thursday after being vetoed by both Russia and China at the UN Security Council.
The diplomatic move highlights the ongoing tensions between Washington and its rivals over the implementation of oversight measures aimed at curbing Iran’s nuclear activities. By casting their vetoes, Moscow and Beijing effectively blocked the adoption of the measure, preventing it from moving forward.
I wonder if the US will pivot to bilateral talks now, or just escalate rhetoric further.
Another veto. Is anyone surprised anymore? Great power politics always wins at the UNSC.
