Remember that Iran Sanctions Resolution? Well... SSDD

Go ahead, guess...
6 powers not yet agreed on draft U.N. sanctions resolution on Iran
(Kyodo) - The five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany made last-ditch efforts Thursday to reach agreement on a draft U.N. resolution which calls for sanctions against Iran for its refusal to suspend uranium enrichment, U.N. diplomats said.
Last ditch. What drama. Nobody spoil it by giving away the ending, K?
The draft, if agreed on among the permanent five -- Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States -- plus Germany, was scheduled to be put to a Security Council vote on Friday. Russian envoy Vitaly Churkin said, however, he did not think that would happen after negotiations late Thursday.

"I don't think there is going to be a vote tomorrow. Maybe Saturday, yes," Churkin said regarding the vote. "But clearly we will need tomorrow for further thinking and maybe further decisions." The Russian envoy said that "just two or three issues remained," but described them as "difficult" and "important. We want the resolution to be as clear as possible and as precise as possible to make sure there are no surprises to anybody and that the implementation of this resolution proceeds smoothly after it's adopted," Churkin said.
