The UN Security Council has voted to impose a fourth round of sanctions against Iran demanding that it suspend enrichment activities and peacefully resolve concerns over the nature of is nuclear program. The vote garnered 12 votes in favor in the 15 member council, with Brazil and Turkey voting against the resolution and Lebanon abstaining.
Those voting in favor cited the nuclear proliferation risks of Iran’s failure to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency’s demand for Iran’s full disclosure of its nuclear program. Iran has said the program is only for peaceful purposes. Many of the council members who voted in favor agreed that the resolution should not affect the economic stability of Iran and its general population.
