Douste-Blazy said the breakthrough came during a telephone conference on March 1 with senior officials from Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia, and the United States.
U.S. officials earlier said work on the draft text could begin next week.
This comes after Iran failed to abide by an earlier UN resolution to halt uranium enrichment.
