The U.N. Security Council unanimously approved a resolution Saturday imposing sanctions against Iran for refusing to suspend uranium enrichment.
According to the AP, the resolution orders all countries to ban the supply of specified materials and technology that could contribute to Iran's nuclear and missile programs. It also imposes an asset freeze on key companies and people in the country's nuclear and missile programs named on a U.N. list.
If Iran refuses to comply, the resolution warns Iran that the council will adopt further nonmilitary sanctions.
Earlier, Iran's Majlis Speaker Gholam Ali Haddad Adel said on Saturday that if pressures on Iran continues and the UNSC passes any resolution or adopt any other policy except continued negotiations, Majlis would revise its relations with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
According to the Public Relations Department and Press Bureau of Majlis, Haddad Adel said it seems that UNSC might issue a resolution against Iran for its peaceful nuclear dossier under pressures of some countries.
"We regard any such resolution against Iran as a wrong policy," he underlined, according to IRNA. "We still insist that Iran's nuclear dossier should be resolved through negotiations," he pointed out.
"From early stages we were ready for negotiations but it was the Europeans who discontinued negotiations and closed other channels," he said, adding that if they seek to deprive the Iranian nation of its legitimate rights to peaceful use of nuclear energy and issue any resolution against us, Majlis cannot ignore the legitimate rights of Iranians.
