Iran UN mission: IAEA resolution will have destructive impact on future cooperation

Iran’s diplomatic mission at the UN has warned that the IAEA board of governors’ move to issue a resolution against Tehran over its nuclear program will have a destructive impact on constructive cooperation and interactions in the future.

The diplomatic mission also criticized the Western governments that drafted the resolution, saying their decision was both hasty and unwise.

The U.N. nuclear watchdog’s 35-nation Board of Governors passed the resolution, drafted by Britain, France and Germany on Wednesday calling on Iran to step up “cooperation” with the IAEA and reverse its recent decision to bar the agency’s inspectors.

Twenty countries voted in favor and two against – Russia and China – with 12 abstentions.
