Gordon Brown has called for the UN to consider “far tougher” sanctions on Iran and North Korea if they pursue nuclear weapons programmes. The prime minister told a UN summit in New York that the international community could not “stand by” and let the non-proliferation regime be broken. He said now was a “decisive moment” for the UN to send Iran a clear message.
He spoke after the UN Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution calling for nuclear disarmament.
