Washington. Estados Unidos acusó el viernes a China y a sus aliados de Reino Unido y Francia de “abdicar a su deber”, mientras seguía firme en su solitaria presión para sostener el embargo de armas y restaurar mayores sanciones de Naciones Unidas contra Irán.

“No necesitamos el permiso de nadie para iniciar el snapback”, dijo Brian Hook, el saliente representante especial para Irán del Departamento de Estado, refiriéndose al mecanismo activado el jueves por Washington para restaurar las sanciones contra Teherán.
