Iran Press/ Iran news: Referring to the US failure in the UN Security Council yesterday to extend the arms embargo on Iran Abbas Mousavi said in a post on his twitter page: "The American regime should take a listen from its total failures & stop shaming itself at the UN, otherwise, it will get isolated, even more than now."
The United Nations Security Council has rejected the US resolution to extend an arms embargo on Iran that is due to expire in October.
Only two of the Council's 15 members voted in favor, highlighting the division between Washington and its European allies since US President Donald Trump withdrew from the nuclear accord in May 2018.

Besides the United States, only the Dominican Republic voted in favor of the draft. China and Russia voted against the text, and the remaining 11 Security Council members, including the European allies of the United States, abstained.
Reacting to the historic defeat of the United States against Iran, the spokesman also emphasized that Iran's active diplomacy, along with the legal strength of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), defeated the United States another time.
"In the 75-year history of the United Nations, there is no record of the United States being this isolated," Abbas Mousavi wrote on his Twitter account on Saturday. Despite all the travels and pressures, the United States was able to bring with it only one small country.
