UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.N. Security Council will approve new sanctions against Iran for refusing to suspend uranium enrichment — but the timing is uncertain and the resolution may not get unanimous support.
U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad said last week a vote would be scheduled on Friday. But council diplomats said Wednesday it was likely to be delayed until next week to try to get the support of four non-permanent members who have expressed concern about the resolution — Libya, Indonesia, South Africa and Vietnam.

Night falls on Tehran. At the end of a day of inspection in the winter 2004-2005, the Belgian Chris Charlier, an inspector with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) sitting comfortably in a coach at the grand hotel described his encounter with the Iranian authorities.
A year earlier, his team of inspectors with the IAEA was "vehemently demanding" that they would be allowed to visit the site at Lavizan-Shiyan, a research center located in the inner suburbs southeast of the Iranian capital.

PARIS (AFP) - France urged Iran on Saturday to halt sensitive activities to allow talks on its nuclear programme to resume, as the latest report by the UN atomic watchdog gave fresh impetus for new sanctions.
"It is indispensable that Iran complies with all the demands of the international community and re-establish confidence that its nuclear program is exclusively peaceful in nature, which the (UN nuclear) agency is not in a position today to certify," the French foreign ministry said in a statement.

“a new computer simulation undertaken by European Union experts indicates that the NIE’s time estimates might be dangerously inaccurate as well — and that Iran might have enough fuel for a bomb much earlier than was previously thought,” the report added.
