Russia and the United States have agreed to seek a new UN resolution calling on Iran to comply with previous demands to suspend uranium enrichment but imposing no new sanctions, UN diplomats said Friday.
British Foreign Secretary David Miliband said the brief resolution will affirm the three previous ones, which imposed progressively tougher sanctions on Iran for refusing to halt its enrichment program and urged Tehran to comply.
The new resolution has the agreement of ministers from the six key players in negotiations on Iran's nuclear program - Russia, the US, Britain, France, China and Germany, Miliband said.
It will be introduced at a Security Council meeting Friday and could be put to a vote as early as Saturday if the 10 non-permanent council members agree, Russia's UN Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said.
