WASHINGTON – The United States considers reports that Iran has restarted nuclear activities “unfortunate” and would expect Tehran to be taken before the United Nations, a State Department official said Monday.

The official, who asked not to be named, made his comments after the vice president of Iran’s Atomic Energy Agency announced the resumption of uranium conversion at its Isfahan plant despite warnings by the international community.

“If, in fact, they have just taken measures to restart uranium conversion, … it would be unfortunate,” the US official said, adding that he expected a board meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency this week to take “appropriate action.”

“We’ve said all along that should Iran break the seals and restart uranium enrichment at Isfahan or anywhere else, we would think an appropriate response would be a referral to the United Nations.”
