The recent U.N. Security Council resolution against Iran may cause Tehran to reconsider negotiations over its nuclear program, Press TV, Iran's government-controlled international news network, reports on its Web site Monday.
"This move once again provides clearer indication that U.S. verbiage regarding Iran's nuclear issue is based on mere political pretense and not on legal proceedings," Iran's parliament speaker, Ali Larijani, is quoted as saying.
He says such resolutions downgrade the value of negotiations to that of a political game and may prompt Iran to evaluate whether negotiations should continue, Press TV reports.
