VIENNA - The United Nations atomic agencyÂ’s 35-nation board of governors may meet in January to discuss the UNÂ’s levying of sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program, diplomats told AFP.| Then again, they may not. |
‘It is not completely clear that there will be a board meeting in January. But I believe that if there was, it would be procedural and short. The board as the governing body may need to instruct the (IAEA) secretariat to implement the resolution,’ a senior European diplomat said.
But the diplomat added that an emergency board meeting, probably in mid-January, could be extended or another called at any moment if the ‘Iranians do anything silly.’
| Define silly. That should be good for a laugh. |
