(BBC News) Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Hassan Rohani has claimed a "great victory" over the U.S. after the UN said it would not punish Iran's nuclear activities with sanctions. Rohani said Iran would never give up its right to nuclear power and stressed during talks with European countries that Iran's freeze on uranium enrichment was only temporary. Rohani said the "whole world had turned down America's calls....We have proved that, in an international institution, we are capable of isolating the U.S. And that is a great victory....Everybody said that the Americans had failed and we had won."
