PARIS/VIENNA (Reuters) - European powers are pushing for a new resolution against Iran by the U.N. atomic watchdog's board next week to pressure Tehran over its poor cooperation, as the world awaits the return of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, diplomats say.
Such resolutions risk further diplomatic tension with Iran. It has retaliated to previous ones and other criticism at the International Atomic Energy Agency's 35-nation Board of Governors by stepping up its nuclear activities and barring top IAEA inspectors, heightening Western concerns about its aims.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
