伊朗官员拒绝接受联合国安理会的决议草案, 对伊朗的核计划实施第四轮制裁。
在星期三接受伊朗国家媒体采访时, 伊朗总统艾哈迈迪内贾德的高级顾问萨马勒表示, 伊朗认为该决议草案“不合法”,因此拒绝接受。
负责伊朗国家原子能计划的伊朗副总统阿里.阿克巴尔.萨莱希星期三还表示,美国和其他世界大国如果通过新的制裁,那将是自取其辱。他说,关于新制裁的讨论已经破裂,新决议草案是美国及其西方盟国最后一根稻草。
安理会讨论的决议草案内容包括武器禁运、限制伊朗弹道导弹活动,以及对被怀疑载有与伊朗核项目有关货物的船只进行更多检查。
Iranian officials have dismissed a draft U.N. Security Council resolution that would impose a fourth round of sanctions on Iran for its nuclear program.
Mojtaba Hashemi Samareh, a top adviser to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, rejected the draft resolution as “illegitimate” in interviews with Iranian state media Wednesday.
Iranian Vice President Ali Akbar Salehi, who heads the country’s Atomic Energy Organization, also said Wednesday the U.S. and other world powers would discredit themselves if they pass new sanctions. He said discussions on new sanctions have faded and the draft resolution is the last effort by the United States and its Western allies.
The draft resolution being discussed by the Security Council includes an arms embargo, limits on Iranian ballistic missile activity, and more inspections of vessels suspected of containing cargo related to Iran’s nuclear program.
