    United Nations Security Council Resolution 3 was adopted by the United Nations Security Council on April 4, 1946. The Council acknowledged that Soviet troops occupying Iran were not removed in accordance with the Tri-partite Treaty of January 29, 1942. Further proceedings surrounding the Iranian crisis were deferred until May 6, 1946, when Soviet withdrawal was to be complete.[1]

    The Council ordered that no member state should interfere with or prevent Soviet withdrawal from Iranian territory.[1]

    Resolution 3 passed with nine votes to none. Australia was present and not voting, and the Soviet Union was absent.[2]
