Russia suggests UN will address Iran sanctions 'soon'

The UN Security Council may take up the issue of sanctions against Iran in the "very near future," the Russian Foreign minister said on Thursday.

"In the absence of cooperation on the part of Iran, it is quite possible that sanctions will become inevitable, and in the very near future the Security Council will deal with these matters," Sergei Lavrov said.
