UNITED NATIONS (AP) - Top diplomats from the world's major powers will try to reach agreement Saturday on new sanctions against Iran for refusing to suspend uranium enrichment. A U.S. official predicted the session would lead to a "substantive resolution."
Foreign ministry political directors from the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany held a two-hour conference call Thursday to discuss what to include in the resolution — and they were scheduled to hold another conference call Saturday morning.
The six countries indicate they want to move quickly to strengthen sanctions following last week's report by the International Atomic Energy Agency that Iran was expanding enrichment instead of suspending it.
