EU Signals New Sanctions Against Iran
(New York Times) Stephen Castle - The European Union is likely to agree on tough new sanctions against Iran that cover further investment in the country's oil and gas industry as well as its financial sector, Foreign Secretary William Hague of Britain said Monday. Britain, France and Germany are advocates "of strong measures," Hague said. EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said Monday that the European bloc would adopt supporting measures to reinforce the UN sanctions resolution approved last week.
