Iran running out of time to head off sanctions, warns US

Dunya News

Time is running out for Iran to avoid sanctions over its nuclear program, a White House spokesman said has said. Tehran's deadline is still the end of the year for responding to international demands. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Iran still had time to live up to its international obligations and that if they don't, time will run out and Western powers will move to the next step. Gibbs seemed confident that Washington will be able to rally the support it needs with the Security Council in order to impose biting sanction on Tehran, should it continue to snub the West.
