united nations of hypocrisy - atomic bombs in iran or energy
The UN security council tightened sanctions on Iran last night for refusing to suspend the enrichment of uranium and other sensitive elements of its nuclear programme, but Tehran showed no sign of ending its defiance. The new security council resolution represented a small increment in the sanctions regime already in place against Iran. Mandatory travel bans were imposed on some Iranian officials involved in nuclear activities, while two Iranian banks were put on an international watch list on suspicion of involvement in covertly buying equipment for the Iranian programme, which western countries believe is ultimately aimed at producing weapons, but which Iran insists is exclusively for peaceful energy generation.
