BAGHDAD / obelisk: The UN Security Council voted unanimously Thursday evening, the exit of Iraq from Chapter VII.

The resolution called upon the Government of Iraq to fulfill its obligations to facilitate the return of all Kuwaiti and third-country nationals to their home countries.
The Council called on the Iraqi government to continue to cooperate with the International Committee of the Red Cross to provide any information about the missing, and the search for the remains of those who have died. He stressed the need to "continue efforts to search for missing Kuwaiti property, including the National Archives, through its inter-ministerial."
The Iraqi government announced that "Iraq would emerge from Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations represents the last external obstacle in front of him to regain full sovereignty remains to deal with internal challenges."
Economic sanctions were used throughout history in order to achieve different goals, some of the "implicit" in order to overthrow a particular political system in order to achieve "democracy", a custom that has become more widely used these days.
And except for international sanctions issued by the United Nations, there are unilateral sanctions issued by the major powers or influence in order to rein in certain countries and reduce their impact on the regional situation.
Iraq .. Severe economic sanctions
Since the nineties groaning Iraq under the weight of sanctions, since the international embargo that resulted from the United Nations Resolution 661, which was issued on August 6, 1990 due to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, and provided for the adoption of economic sanctions stranglehold on Iraq to force his time on the immediate withdrawal from Kuwait. This decision was followed by almost ten successive resolutions, warning him of the consequences of his stay in Kuwait and the defiance of the international community.
And suffered Iraqis two of these sanctions, which deprived them of food and medicine, as well as all means of progress and technology that reached the world in the era of the nineties of the last century, which led to the deaths of a million and a half million children as a result of hunger and lack of medicine acute and their lack of the most basic means of life.
This siege lasted nearly 13 years where practically ended with the fall of the Baath regime in 2003, Iraq had suffered from severe isolation from most countries in the world politically, diplomatically and economically, but Iraq remained suffers from the effects of hindsight under Chapter VII of the Charter internationalist. And compared to the suffering of the Iraqi sanctions made Saddam Hussein, one of the richest ten richest in the world.
Iran .. Enrichment

Sanctions failed weapon
Evidence shows that the sanctions are on the whole failed weapon, and often pay the peoples of the price and not systems that increasingly stringent and rigid in their positions and policies.
But that those penalties paid mostly target systems to retrenchment, and build an economy in a state of siege, and the weakening of the middle classes in the cities, which form the fertile soil to oppose the dictatorship.
According to U.S. academic Robert Pape, only about five out of 115 cases of sanctions imposed since World War II proved reasonably effective. In contrast, most other sanctions did not do more than cause a major humanitarian costs paid population in the target countries, including innocent civilians do not have little effect on the behavior of their governments.
According to Trina Parsi, a specialist in the affairs of US-Iranian relations, that during the last fifty years has been the application of many of the economic sanctions and expanded its circle, where one country turned to democracy.
