Expect a “strong” letter of regret and another round of hand slaps from Ban Ki Moon.
Iran fails to accept UN uranium enrichment plan
TEHRAN, Iran – Iran on Friday failed to accept a U.N.-drafted plan that would ship most of the country’s uranium abroad for enrichment, saying instead it would prefer to buy the nuclear fuel it needs for a reactor that makes medical isotopes.
The response will come as a disappointment to the U.S., Russia and France, which endorsed the U.N. plan Friday they drafted in discussions with Iran earlier in the week. The agreement was meant to ease Western fears about Iran’s potential to make a nuclear weapon.
