Russia and China veto UN extension of Iran sanctions monitoring

–

Neutral summary

Russia and China on September 17 vetoed a US-drafted UN Security Council resolution that would have extended until September 2027 the mandate of the expert panel of the 1737 Committee monitoring compliance with sanctions on Iran. Eleven of the Council’s 15 members voted in favour, while Somalia and Pakistan abstained, but the resolution failed because two permanent members voted against it. Iran’s UN mission thanked Moscow and Beijing for their “principled positions” and Somalia and Pakistan for abstaining, calling the US draft “politically motivated”.
