Iran 'will not comply with a UN nuclear resolution'

Iran will not comply with any Security Council resolution aimed at halting its nuclear enrichment programme because its activities are legal, peaceful, and pose no threat to international security, said Iran’s UN ambassador.

Ambassador Javad Zarif said he expected “a lot of pressure from the US to impose another short-sighted decision on the Security Council” after today’s release of a report by UN nuclear chief Mohamed ElBaradei.
