The US, Britain, France, and Germany are pushing for a resolution by the UN nuclear watchdog's board to report Iran to the UN Security Council. This move comes as Iran has not allowed International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors to return to bombed nuclear sites or verify its enriched uranium stocks.
According to diplomats, a draft resolution has been proposed, but negotiations over the exact wording are ongoing. If passed, this would be the first time Iran has been reported to the UN Security Council in 20 years.
The resolution follows up on one adopted last year, which declared Iran in breach of its non-proliferation obligations for not cooperating with an investigation into uranium traces found at undeclared sites.
