Six powers push defiant Iran to address nuclear fears
Russia and China joined Western powers on Thursday in piling pressure on Iran to address fears about possible military aspects of its nuclear program a day after Tehran said its would ramp up its uranium enrichment.
The six powers said Iran's "consistent failure" to comply with obligations under UN resolutions to restrain nuclear activity and allow more effective IAEA inspections had "deepened concerns" about its intentions. "We call on Iran to cooperate fully with the agency," a joint statement read out at the closed-door session said. (Reuters)
