If that prompts Obama to seek further sanctions via the U.N. or impose them unilaterally, however, the resulting divide between the West and Russia and China will work to Iran's advantage. New sanctions would also end immediate prospects for a diplomatic solution, because Iran has long declared that it won't negotiate in response to ultimatums...
