'No use of force' draft on Iran gets Washington nod
The American agreement has improved the chances that the Russians will go along with the resolution.
The American agreement has improved the chances that the Russians will go along with the resolution, European diplomats said.
The resolution is to call on Iran to suspend various nuclear activities that are viewed in the West as part of a clandestine weapons programme, but that Iran says are peaceful in nature.
President Bush called president Vladimir V Putin, president Jacques Chirac and chancellor Angela Merkel to press for agreement on a UNSC resolution demanding that Iran stop enriching uranium or face punitive action.
Secretary of state Condoleezza Rice's office announced that she would fly to Vienna on Wednesday for more talks with top Russian, Chinese and European envoys. The US goal is to get an agreement on a resolution this week for possible approval in June.
"I think that we could safely say that we feel like we're in good shape heading into Vienna," Sean McCormack, the state department spokesman, said at a department briefing.
