Tehran, YJC. International law expert has provided comments on how a UN resolution on Iran nuclear deal would be implemented.
Behzad Saberi in interview with YJC said that a UN
resolution which is to be made according to the Lausanne nuclear agreement will
revoke all previous sanctions on Iran.
He said that once a resolution is adopted, it would be
obligatory for all countries to adhere to it based on the UN charter.
He noted that since previous sanctions have been imposed on
Tehran under chapter 7 of the charter, the new resolution would also have to be
made under that chapter.
If any side of the agreement does not adhere to it,
naturally the other side would also abandon adherence, so there would be no
worry, he stated.
He also said that another resolution to reimpose the
sanctions would also be futile, since for that to be passed the consent of
Russia and China is required, which are unlikely to grant consent.
Further, he noted, the West came to the negotiation table
since it understood that sanctions do not do much against Iran, so the
resolution would be viable only on paper.
