The failure of all the member of the UN Security Council to endorse the draft resolution extending Resolution 2231 exposed the dominance of one power and European compliance, Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said Monday.
“Nearly half of its members are unconvinced that the E3-triggered reimposition is justified, legitimate, or legal,” Baghaei wrote on X.
The council’s "divisions" showed six of 15 members withheld support despite US and European pressure, Baghaei said.
"Resolution 2231 will be deemed terminated on 18 October 2025, as explicitly provided in the resolution itself. Any attempt by the E3 or the United States to revive terminated sanctions is null and void. FM Araghchi has conveyed this message directly in letters to his counterparts worldwide."
