U.N. Security Council unanimously approves Iran nuclear deal

[Geee]

Washington Examiner:

The United Nations' Security Council on Monday unanimously approved a resolution endorsing the Iran nuclear agreement.

 

The vote was never in doubt, since it was just negotiated by the Council's five permanent members — Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States — as well as Germany.

 

But the vote is likely to further anger Republicans and even some Democrats in Congress who were calling on the Obama administration to give Congress a vote first.

 

The top Republican and Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee were demanding that Congress act first, and a key House Democrat, Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md., made the same demand last week.
