UN Security Council rejects US bid to extend Iran arms embargo - Al Jazeera English

The United Nations Security Council has resoundingly rejected a bid by the United States to extend a global arms embargo on Iran. "The Security Council's failure to act decisively in defense of international peace and security is inexcusable," he said in a statement. Israel and the six Arab Gulf nations who supported the extension "know Iran will spread even greater chaos and destruction if the embargo expires", Pompeo said, "but the Security Council chose to ignore them". "Imposition of any sanctions or restrictions on Iran by the Security Council will be met severely by Iran and our options are not limited. But some analysts said they suspect that Washington put forward a hardline draft purposefully, knowing that council members would not be able to accept it.
