🇮🇷🇺🇳 - The six United Nations Security Council Resolutions, UNSCR, as part of the snapback sanctions on Iran have come into effect:

- 1696 (voted on in 2006),
- 1737 (voted on in 2006),
- 1747 (voted on in 2007),
- 1803 (voted on in 2008),
- 1835 (voted on in 2008),
- 1929 (voted on in 2010).

All six were voted in favor by every permanent member of the UNSC, which includes the US, France, the UK, Russia and China.

Only three countries ever voted in favor of Iran, the non-permanent members of Turkey and Brazil at UNSCR1929, and Qatar at UNSCR1696 (Qatar famously said then that if the UNSCR passed, it would set the Middle East region on "flames" for decades to come).
