UNSC Set to Vote on Iran Deal

World

WASHINGTON-The United Nations Security Council has scheduled a vote for Monday morning on a resolution endorsing the Iran nuclear deal.

With all five permanent members of the Security Council involved in the marathon negotiations with Iran, the resolution’s adoption is almost certain.

The U.N. vote will come as U.S. lawmakers begin their own review of the historic deal. The Obama administration on Sunday sent the nuclear agreement to Congress.

Members of the U.S. legislature have 60 days to review the pact, with some Republicans vowing to reject it. Lawmakers can vote to approve or reject the pact.

Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell predicted President Barack Obama will have a “real challenge” getting the pact through a skeptical, Republican-led Congress, and criticized it as “the best deal acceptable to Iran, rather than one that might actually end Iran’s nuclear program.”

Obama has promised to veto any congressional attempt to kill the initiative.
