Iran Not Too Happy with Recently Passed Sanctions

Iran Warns of ‘Reduced’ Ties With U.N. Inspectors

PARIS — One day after the Security Council approved new sanctions against them, the authorities in Tehran threatened on Thursday to revise their relationship with the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog, using familiar language that has in the past presaged moves to limit global oversight of Iran’s nuclear program.

State-run Press TV quoted Alaeddin Boroujerdi, the head of the National Security and Foreign Policy in the Iranian Parliament, as saying legislators would meet on Sunday to “push for legislation to reduce” Iran’s relations with the International Atomic Energy Agency.

He did not offer details of a likely response to Wednesday’s Security Council action, approved by 12 of the 15 members. Brazil and Turkey opposed the measures, and Lebanon abstained.
