                     Having considered the proposal made by the President of the International
               Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (the International Tribunal) that the Secretary-General be authorized, within existing resources, to appoint additional ad litem

               time, returning to a maximum of twelve by 31 December 2008, to enable the
               International Tribunal to conduct additional trials once one or more of the
               permanent Judges of the International Tribunal become available,
                      Recalling that resolution 1503 (2003) of 28 August 2003 called upon the
               International Tribunal to take all possible measures to complete all trial activities at

               trials as soon as possible in order to meet completion strategy objectives,

               Resolution 1803 (2008)
               Adopted by the Security Council at its 5848th meeting,
               on 3 March 2008

                    The Security Council,
                     Recalling the Statement of its President, S/PRST/2006/15, of 29 March 2006,
               and its resolution 1696 (2006) of 31 July 2006, its resolution 1737 (2006) of
               23 December 2006 and its resolution 1747 (2007) of 24 March 2007, and
               reaffirming their provisions,
                     Reaffirming its commitment to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear
               Weapons, the need for all States Party to that Treaty to comply fully with all their
               obligations, and recalling the right of States Party, in conformity with Articles I and
               II of that Treaty, to develop research, production and use of nuclear energy for
               peaceful purposes without discrimination,
                    Recalling the resolution of the IAEA Board of Governors (GOV/2006/14),
               which states that a solution to the Iranian nuclear issue would contribute to global
               non-proliferation efforts and to realizing the objective of a Middle East free of
               weapons of mass destruction, including their means of delivery,
                     Noting with serious concern that, as confirmed by the reports of 23 May 2007
               (GOV/2007/22), 30 August 2007 (GOV/2007/48), 15 November 2007
               (GOV/2007/58) and 22 February 2008 (GOV/2008/4) of the Director General of the
               International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Iran has not established full and
               sustained suspension of all enrichment related and reprocessing activities and heavy
               water-related projects as set out in resolution 1696 (2006), 1737 (2006), and 1747
               (2007), nor resumed its cooperation with the IAEA under the Additional Protocol,

               refusal to take these steps,
                    Noting with concern that Iran has taken issue with the IAEA’s right to verify
               design information which had been provided by Iran pursuant to the modified
               Code 3.1, emphasizing that in accordance with Article 39 of Iran’s Safeguards
               Agreement Code 3.1 cannot be modified nor suspended unilaterally and that the
               Agency’s right to verify design information provided to it is a continuing right,

               which is not dependent on the stage of construction of, or the presence of nuclear
               material at, a facility,
                     Reiterating its determination to reinforce the authority of the IAEA, strongly
               supporting the role of the IAEA Board of Governors, commending the IAEA for its
               efforts to resolve outstanding issues relating to Iran’s nuclear programme in the
               work plan between the Secretariat of the IAEA and Iran (GOV/2007/48,
               Attachment), welcoming the progress in implementation of this work plan as
               reflected in the IAEA Director General’s reports of 15 November 2007
               (GOV/2007/58) and 22 February 2008 (GOV/2008/4), underlining the importance
               of Iran producing tangible results rapidly and effectively by completing
               implementation of this work plan including by providing answers to all the
               questions the IAEA asks so that the Agency, through the implementation of the
               required transparency measures, can assess the completeness and correctness of
               Iran’s declaration,
                     Expressing the conviction that the suspension set out in paragraph 2 of
               resolution 1737 (2006) as well as full, verified Iranian compliance with the
               requirements set out by the IAEA Board of Governors would contribute to a
               diplomatic, negotiated solution, that guarantees Iran’s nuclear programme is for
               exclusively peaceful purposes,
                     Stressing that China, France, Germany, the Russian Federation, the United
               Kingdom and the United States are willing to take further concrete measures on
               exploring an overall strategy of resolving the Iranian nuclear issue through
               negotiation on the basis of their June 2006 proposals (S/2006/521), and noting the
               confirmation by these countries that once the confidence of the international
               community in the exclusively peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear programme is
               restored, it will be treated in the same manner as that of any Non-Nuclear Weapon
               State party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons,
                    Having regard to States’ rights and obligations relating to international trade,
                     Welcoming the guidance issued by the Financial Actions Task Force (FATF) to
               assist States in implementing their financial obligations under resolution 1737
               (2006),
                     Determined to give effect to its decisions by adopting appropriate measures to
               persuade Iran to comply with resolution 1696 (2006), resolution 1737 (2006),
               resolution 1747 (2007) and with the requirements of the IAEA, and also to constrain
               Iran’s development of sensitive technologies in support of its nuclear and missile
               programmes, until such time as the Security Council determines that the objectives
               of these resolutions have been met,
                    Concerned by the proliferation risks presented by the Iranian nuclear
               programme and, in this context, by Iran’s continuing failure to meet the
               requirements of the IAEA Board of Governors and to comply with the provisions of
               Security Council resolutions 1696 (2006), 1737 (2006) and 1747 (2007), mindful of
               its primary responsibility under the Charter of the United Nations for the
               maintenance of international peace and security,
                    Acting under Article 41 of Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations,
                     1. Reaffirms that Iran shall without further delay take the steps required by
               the IAEA Board of Governors in its resolution GOV/2006/14, which are essential to

2                                                                                08-25781

                                                                                S/RES/1803 (2008)

           build confidence in the exclusively peaceful purpose of its nuclear programme and
           to resolve outstanding questions, and, in this context, affirms its decision that Iran
           shall without delay take the steps required in paragraph 2 of resolution 1737 (2006),
           and underlines that the IAEA has sought confirmation that Iran will apply Code 3.1
           modified;
                 2.    Welcomes the agreement between Iran and the IAEA to resolve all
           outstanding issues concerning Iran’s nuclear programme and progress made in this
           regard as set out in the Director General’s report of 22 February 2008
           (GOV/2008/4), encourages the IAEA to continue its work to clarify all outstanding
           issues, stresses that this would help to re-establish international confidence in the
           exclusively peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear programme, and supports the IAEA in
           strengthening its safeguards on Iran’s nuclear activities in accordance with the
           Safeguards Agreement between Iran and the IAEA;
                 3.    Calls upon all States to exercise vigilance and restraint regarding the
           entry into or transit through their territories of individuals who are engaged in,
           directly associated with or providing support for Iran’s proliferation sensitive
           nuclear activities or for the development of nuclear weapon delivery systems, and
           decides in this regard that all States shall notify the Committee established pursuant
           to paragraph 18 of resolution 1737 (2006) (herein “the Committee”) of the entry
           into or transit through their territories of the persons designated in the Annex to

           implementation of the above paragraph, take into account humanitarian
           considerations, including religious obligations, as well as the necessity to meet the
           objectives of this resolution, resolution 1737 (2006) and resolution 1747 (2007),
           including where Article XV of the IAEA Statute is engaged;
