| Iran's Security Council Bid Nears a Vote |
| 2008-10-14 |
| (CNSNews.com) -- Twelve years after Iran put forward its name for a seat on the United Nations Security Council for the 2009-10 period, its candidacy comes to a vote later this week, at a time of disquiet over Tehran's anti-Israel rhetoric and nuclear activities. Iran is one of a group of countries vying for five of the council's 10 non-permanent seats. Two are earmarked for Western nations (currently held by Belgium and Italy), and one each for Asia (held by Indonesia), Latin America (Panama) and Africa (South Africa.) |
