Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has canceled a planned visit to the United Nations, blaming a delay in U.S. visas being issued to the crew of his airplane.Ahmadinejad wanted to speak to the U.N. Security Council before a vote, scheduled for Saturday on sanctions against Iran.
Iran says it will still try to get high-level representation to the U.N. most likely the foreign minister.
The draft resolution comes after the U.N.’s atomic energy watchdog agency said last month it could not verify that Iran’s uranium enrichment program was strictly for peaceful purposes, as Iran has said. Western nations, including the United States, believe Iran is using its uranium enrichment program to develop nuclear weapons.
