Russia rejects UN draft resolution for Iran sanctions
2006-10-27
MOSCOW: Russia on Thursday rejected a draft UN resolution put forward by European powers targeting Iran's nuclear programme, saying the proposed measures did not advance objectives agreed on earlier by major world powers.

Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the resolution put forward on Wednesday by Britain, France and Germany would not be effective in containing Iran's programme and contradicted the consensus reached by the five permanent UN Security Council members and Germany. "I think that in this respect the draft resolution that has been presented clearly does not further the objectives that the six powers agreed on earlier," Lavrov was quoted as saying by Interfax news agency.

Those goals, Lavrov said, are preventing proliferation of sensitive technology without the supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency, while also keeping open all necessary channels of communication with Iran.

Wow! Another line of unadulterated bull$hit straight from yet another communist nation trying to take advantage of a situation for monetary or political gain, damn the consequences!

OK, wise guy Russia, what did you just say in English, please, and what are your genius ideas?
