Russia and China block US Iran resolution
The article addressed the failure of an American draft resolution in the UN Security Council aimed at extending the mandate of the expert team responsible for overseeing sanctions against Iran, after Russia and China used their veto power. Eleven countries voted in favor of the resolution, while Pakistan and Somalia abstained, and Russia and China objected on the grounds that the Iranian nuclear agreement signed in 2015 is no longer valid and that there are no legal grounds to hold the session. This comes within the context of ongoing debate over sanctions on Iran, with Moscow and Beijing opposing the reinstatement of the nuclear deal terminated by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
