Russia and China vetoed a US-backed resolution to keep UN experts monitoring Iran's nuclear sanctions, ending independent oversight just as the IAEA referred Iran's non-compliance to the Security Council for the first time in 20 years. Legitimate pushback against a biased process, or Russia and China running interference for Tehran?

The vote was 11 in favor, with Russia and China vetoing and Pakistan and Somalia abstaining. — Legitimate pushback 100%, Running interference for Iran 0%, Sanctions were flawed anyway 0% (1 vote so far).
