The announcement comes a day after Iran made a deal with  Turkey that would see nuclear material exchanged for enriched uranium in  Turkey. The deal was similar to one proposed by the West and its  allies last year. But news of Iran's deal with  Turkey has been cooly received by the US and its allies. "We have  reached agreement on a strong draft with the co-operation of Russia and  China," Mrs Clinton said of talks among the five permanent Security  Council members - Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States -  as well as Germany. "We plan to circulate the draft resolution  to the entire Security Council today," Clinton added in a text released  by the US State Department of her comments she made to the US Senate  Foreign Relations Committee. The US and its western allies  believe Iran is trying to build a nuclear weapon, but Iran denies this. BBC</blockquote>
