TEHRAN: Iran s top nuclear negotiator warned Wednesday that any UN sanctions over its nuclear program would have negative consequences in the region and also affect Tehran s cooperation with the UN atomic watchdog. If sanctions are pursued by the UN Security Council they know that this will accentuate the regional crisis, Ali Larijani told the Mehr news agency in an interview, without elaborating.
The adventurist actions of the United States [against Iran at the Security Council] would have consequences on a regional scale, he added. Security Council moves would also be perceived by Iran as a threat to our security and will have consequences for our attitude towards the [UN atomic] agency, he added.
