The President of Iran claims....

   ....Kofi Annan told him to [1]"pay no attention" to a UN resolution.

     "With regard to America, I have said that our position is crystal
     clear. We disagree with their method of running the world. We
     oppose it. This is a method of dominance, a method that emerged as
     a consequence of relations in World War II, a method that is
     one-sided and hegemonic."
     [...]
     "They issued a resolution, and made a bit of a mess. Nevertheless,
     Mr. Kofi Annan called me and said: 'Don't pay any attention to
     them. They were hasty, and what they did was not a good thing. Do
     what you have to do.' Despite this, the Iranian people displayed
     nobility and did the right thing. At that time, we could have put
     everything aside, and said that as long as they do not modify [the
     resolution] and prove their fairness, we will not take any further
     measures. Nevertheless, we gave them another opportunity. I believe
     that the opportunity the Iranian people gave the European countries
     is a very exceptional opportunity. This is an exceptional
     opportunity to bring about a just solution to all the issues,
     assuming that they want justice, and I hope they do." (Emphasis
     mine.)

   If you wonder why the UN is such a worthless, useless organization,
   its "leader" might be a big reason.
