US Draft Resolution:
"Iraq... will face serious consequences as a result of its continued violations of its obligations"
US officials are signalling that a deal has been reached with France and Russia to overcome their objections to a new resolution against Iraq.
Senior diplomats are discussing the latest resolution drafted by the United States at a closed-door meeting of the UN Security Council.
The BBC's Middle East analyst, Roger Hardy, says, barring last-minute snags US President George W Bush could have new UN backing - along with his party's election successes - to give him added momentum in his desire to see regime change in Iraq.
