Britain insisted on Monday that Iran meets obligations under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty after Iranian lawmakers voted to block snap U.N. checks of nuclear sites if it is referred to the Security Council. "We'll be considering what the Iranian parliament said yesterday," British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw told reporters as he arrived for a European Union foreign ministers' meeting. "Iran is a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty. It's got clear obligations. It was declared non-compliant with its obligations because of its failure to meet various undertakings in the safeguards agreement," he added. Iran has signed but not ratified the so-called Additional Protocol to the Non-Proliferation Treaty which provides extra safeguards such as snap inspections. EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana said the vote was "not good news" but stressed there was still time to consider Iran's case before the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) meets in Vienna on Thursday to decide possible further action.
