he US, Britain and France warned Iran Thursday that time was running out for a diplomatic solution to curb its nuclear program.
The statements come days after a third round in talks between Iran and the P5+1 group — the US, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany — ended with no progress beyond milquetoast statements of “constructive” negotiations.
“Time is wasting,” US Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice told a UN Security Council meeting on nuclear sanctions against Iran. “The international community should continue to underscore that Iran must take meaningful steps or face increasing pressure. Yet, we cannot and we will not pursue this path indefinitely. We will not engage in an endless process of negotiations that fail to produce any results.”
