UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The United States, Britain and France introduced a U.N. Security Council resolution on Wednesday demanding that Iran suspend uranium enrichment efforts that the West suspects are part of a secret nuclear weapons program.
The text, which is opposed by Russia and China, does not contain any sanctions but threatens to consider "further measures as may be necessary" to ensure Iran's compliance -- a veiled way of saying the Western allies would attempt to enact sanctions if Tehran remained defiant.
