London, Dec. 12 The foreign ministers of the European Union discussed the international standoff over Irans nuclear program, during a meeting in Brussels on Monday.
Over lunch, ministers discussed the state of play regarding work on a draft UN Security Council resolution on the Iranian nuclear issue, the 25-nation block said in a statement.
Security Council resolution 1696 of 31 July 2006 made suspension of enrichment-related activities a mandatory measure and expressed the intention to adopt appropriate measures under Article 41 of Chapter VII of the UN Charter in the event of Iranian non-compliance with Security Council requests, the EU statement added.
The foreign ministers are planning to hold further discussions over Irans nuclear non-compliance in Brussels on Thursday during the EU leaders summit.
