WASHINGTON — The White
House charged Monday that the
Soviet veto in the United Nations of
economic sanctions against the
Tehran government “is aimed at
advancing Soviet designs in Iran.”
The U.N. Security Council voted
10-2 Sunday night for the sanctions,
but the U.S. -sponsored measure was
vetoed by the Soviet Union.
In a statement condemning the
Soviet action, a White House report
said that over the next several days,
the United States will work with
other nations to seek to implement
sanctions against Iran for its refusal
to free 50 U.S. hostages held in the
U.S. embassy in Tehran since Nov.
4.
The statement said that, at the
president s direction, Deputy Sec
retary of State Warren Christopher
is now in Europe to discuss further
actions with European allies.
The White House statement
charged that by its two vetoes in the
past week — the other against a re
solution denouncing the Russian in
vasion of Afghanistan — “The Soviet
Union has opposed this effort of the
international community, including
the United States, to resolve the cri-

Meanwhile, it is seeking to crush the
independence of Afghanistan
through military force.”
The statement went on to say that
the Soviet vetoes “expose, for all the
world to see, the Soviet Union’s dis
regard for international law and the
world’s machinery of peace.”
“The veto does nothing to lessen
the world community’s condemna
tion of their acts, ” the White House
statement said. “Nor does it lessen
Iran’s isolation from the world. In
spite of the veto, we are confident
that nations will act to maintain the
rule of law. ”

United Press International
WASHINGTON — A State De
partment spokesman said Monday it
would go ahead with unilateral sanc
tions against Iran, despite the Soviet
veto of such a move in the United
Nations.
rj' . ; Describing the Soviet veto as a
k, “cynical act which once again proves
'5^ } Soviet contempt for international
law,' department spokesman Hod-
, , ding Carter said, "We will act as
/// though the resolution had been put
/ ' into effect.”
The vetoed resolution called for
the end of all commercial sales to
Iran, with the exception of food and
medicine, and a reduction in the
\ ^ level of diplomatic contacts with the
'' regime.
The United States is prepared to
follow through and increase the cost
anc ^ pressure to Iran for the holding
V. of hostages,” Carter said.
He said the United States has
T Y some indications that the measures
t*/j 1 iff!I? that have already been taken “have
iJ of caused shortages and economic dis-
location in Iran.”
