The U.S. and its allies clash with Iran and its ally Russia over Western claims that Tehran is supplying Moscow with drones that have been attacking Ukraine.
FILE - United Nations Security Council meet for the presentation of a humanitarian report on the Russian war in Ukraine, Tuesday Dec. 6, 2022 at U.N. headquarters. The United States and its allies on Monday, Dec. 20, 2022, clashed with Iran and its ally Russia over Western claims that Tehran is supplying Moscow with drones that have been attacking Ukraine _ and the U.S. accused the U.N. secretary-general of “yielding to Russian threats” and failing to launch an investigation.
Iran is ready to resume talks and arrange a ministerial meeting “as soon as possible to declare the JCPOA restoration," Iravani said. “This is achievable if the U.S. demonstrates genuine political will … The U.S. now has the ball in its court.” At the end of the council meeting, Wood asked for the floor to refute Iravani, saying it's “a fact" that Iran’s extraneous demands and rejection of all compromise proposals are the reason why there has not been a return to mutual compliance with the JCPOA.
In addition, Woodward said, “Iranian nuclear breakout time has reduced to a matter of weeks, and the time required for Iran to produce the fissile material for multiple nuclear weapons is decreasing.” She said Iran is also testing technology that could enable intermediate and intercontinental range ballistic missiles to carry a nuclear payload.
Iran’s Iravani emphasized that all of Iran’s nuclear activities “are peaceful” and said Iran is ready to engage the IAEA to resolve outstanding issues on nuclear safeguards.
