UK, France, Germany draft new Iran resolution

NEW YORK - Three European countries are negotiating a proposal to respond to Iran's rejection of UN Security Council demands to halt uranium enrichment, the British UN ambassador said Friday. Emyr Jones Parry said the draft resolution he is discussing with counterparts from France and Germany should be ready by next week for debate in the 15-nation council. "We are setting a trend, which is a diplomatic solution," he said. "Our patience is pretty consistent in order to achieve that." The resolution will be under Chapter 7 of the UN Charter, which allows military force to back up the will of the Security Council.
