(Reuters) Michelle Nichols - The United States and Russia both criticized United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Monday for overstepping his mandate in a report on the implementation of a Security Council resolution backing a nuclear deal between Iran and world powers. U.N. political affairs chief Jeffrey Feltman briefed the 15-member Security Council on Monday on Ban's first bi-annual report on the implementation of the remaining sanctions and restrictions on Iran. Ban's report said ballistic missile launches by Iran in March were "not consistent with the constructive spirit" of the nuclear deal, but it is up to the United Nations Security Council to decide if they violated a resolution. Russian U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said the report contained factual errors, and headings in the report referring to "restrictions" on Iranian ballistic missile activities "simply don't coincide with the subject of the report." U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power stated, "The United States disagrees strongly with elements of this report, including that its content goes beyond the appropriate scope." 2016-07-19 00:00:00Full Article
