联合国安理会未能通过伊朗制裁豁免草案

Group 1 - The UN Security Council failed to pass a resolution to extend the sanctions waiver on Iran, with the proposal not receiving the required nine votes for approval [2] - The resolution was proposed by South Korea, the rotating president of the Security Council in September, and was opposed by the US, UK, and France among others [2] - If the resolution had passed, it would have continued to lift UN sanctions on Iran based on the 2015 nuclear deal and Security Council Resolution 2231 [2] Group 2 - The UK, France, and Germany triggered the "snapback" sanctions mechanism on August 28, citing Iran's "serious non-compliance" with the nuclear deal [2][3] - The "snapback" mechanism allows for the restoration of sanctions if the Security Council does not pass a resolution to continue the sanctions waiver within 30 days [2] - There are concerns regarding the legality of the "snapback" mechanism activation by the UK, France, and Germany, as it bypassed the required "dispute resolution mechanism" [3] Group 3 - Iran has expressed opposition to the activation of the "snapback" mechanism and reached an agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency regarding the resumption of verification activities in Iran [3] - Despite the failure to pass the sanctions waiver resolution, negotiations on the issue may continue during the upcoming General Assembly debate [3]
