NEW YORK — Iran’s foreign minister laid out a course of action this week in the case of an anticipated nuclear deal with six world powers, including a UN Security Council endorsement “within days” and the lifting of sanctions “within weeks” of an agreement, but diplomats say that the process is not that simple.
“As our understanding stands today, and I don’t think there is any divergence here, if we have an agreement on June 30, on or within a few days after that, we will have a resolution in the Security Council under Article 41 of Chapter 7, which will be mandatory for all member states,” Mohammad Javad Zarif told a public audience at New York University on April 29.
