UN Security Council Gives Iran An Ultimatum?
This sounds promising...
Except, we find out later in the article:
So, basically, the message to Iran is: "COMPLY IN THIRTY DAYS OR WE'LL CHECK UP ON YOU AGAIN!"

Except, we find out later in the article:
The full council backed the watered-down text which had first been worked out among the body's five veto-wielding permanent members on the eve of a Berlin meeting of foreign ministers of Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States on how to deal with Tehran's nuclear defiance.
In a concession to Russia and China, the text, drafted by Britain and France, "requests in 30 days a report from the director general of the IAEA (UN nuclear watchdog) on the process of Iranian compliance with the steps required by the IAEA board, to the IAEA board of governors and in parallel to the Security Council for its consideration."
So, basically, the message to Iran is: "COMPLY IN THIRTY DAYS OR WE'LL CHECK UP ON YOU AGAIN!"
I'm sure the Mullahs are shaking in their boots.
