Pressure mounted on Iran yesterday to halt its nuclear programme as world leaders at the United Nations warned of the threat posed by Tehran to a global consensus on disarmament.
President Obama praised the unanimous passing of a historic UN Security Council resolution aimed at ridding the world of nuclear weapons.
Russia’s apparent shift robs Tehran of one of its most entrenched supporters. Israel, which has warned that it will attack Iran if the international community’s efforts prove ineffective, hailed the Russian shift
Indirectly this is a good result for Iran, this may have the desired effect and the Supreme Leader, the real power in Iran may order the cessation of Nuclear enrichment, now that Russia and China are onside with the West the chances of Iran being able to continue along the enrichment path to weapons grade are practically Zero.
The Israeli’s must be overjoyed with the way the session at the UN went this week, though secretly they may have wanted to bomb the reactors and processing plants anyway just to make sure there was no chance of it secretly starting up again in the near future.
From the Iranian point of view this decision by the UN makes it imperative that regime change happens and happens soon, a new leader can ride this wave of unity amongst the five permanent members of the security council and bring the Country back into the international fold. After all as Obama is fond of saying the row is not with Iran and the Iranian people just their leaders.
