In an all-night meeting Monday night at the home of British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice managed to convince UN Security Council members Russia and China to sign on to the plan to call Iran before the UN to explain its nuclear program.
The meeting also produced a statement calling on the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to "report to the Security Council its decision on the steps required of Iran, and [to] also report to the Security Council all IAEA reports as resolutions as adopted relating to this issue" at the group's meeting in Vienna this Thursday." The nations agreed to wait until March to summon Iran itself to the UN, allowing the IAEA time to complete its current report on Iran's violations of international policy.
Iran still maintains that it possesses a nuclear program for the sole purpose of creating energy.
