The European Union and the United Nations have sure taken Iran to task...
Whoo boy. A confidence-building, non-legally-binding commitment. Now that's how you get the attention of a terror state currently engaged in building nuclear weapons.
Seriously, anybody else get the feeling that the folks in Tehran are high-fiving each other right now after simultaneously signing this bit of fluff and avoiding the security council?
VIENNA (Reuters) - The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the U.N. nuclear watchdog, passed a resolution approving Iran's week-old suspension of sensitive nuclear activities as part of a deal with the European Union, a senior diplomat told Reuters.
Crucially, and in line with Iranian demands, the resolution described the freeze as a voluntary, confidence-building measure and not a legally binding commitment.
Its passage meant that Tehran, which denies seeking the bomb, had achieved its immediate objective of avoiding being hauled before the Security Council for possible sanctions.
