News release: “The Security Council today imposed additional sanctions against Iran, including the inspection of cargo suspected of carrying prohibited goods, the tighter monitoring of financial institutions and the extension of travel bans and asset freezes, over its nuclear programme. Fourteen Council members voted in favour of the resolution, which voiced concern at the proliferation risks presented by the Iranian nuclear programme, while Indonesia abstained. The resolution adds to Council sanctions imposed in 2006 and another round last year. Under the resolution, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Mohamed ElBaradei has been asked to report within 90 days on whether Iran has fully suspended uranium enrichment activities, in line with a previous Council demand.”
