IAEA passes resolution, demands Iran freeze uranium enrichment

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Vienna, Sept 18, IRNA -- The International Atomic Energy Agency`s 
Board of Governors adopted a resolution Saturday demanding Iran freeze
all activities related to uranium enrichment. 
According to the IAEA spokeswoman Melissa Fleming, the resolution 
was passed without a vote, by consensus. 
The resolution was drafted by Britain, France and Germany Friday, 
setting a November 25 deadline for a full review of Iran`s nuclear 
program and calling on Tehran to `immediately` suspend all uranium 
enrichment activities. 
The non-aligned nations had challenged the draft resolution for 
taking Iran to task for uranium enrichment, which is allowed under the
NPT. 
In passing the resolution, the Board of Governors adopted the 
non-aligned countries` demand in one of the two disputed paragraphs.
