Solana in the Iranian deadlock
Source: Novosti
05 December 2007 – Javier Solana, the European Union's High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy, said he does not think Iran will resume the nuclear talks.
Solana met with Saeed Jalili, who heads Iran's Supreme National Security Council, in London last weekend, prior to the Saturday meeting in Paris of the six countries' mediators in the Iranian nuclear dispute.
The EU representative later said that he had expected more from Iran after five hours of talks. Jalili told him, more firmly than ever before, that Iran would not stop its uranium enrichment program, because it considers it inappropriate to forego this right while honoring all the other commitments under the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Solana's statement is shocking, especially because all of his previous talks with Iranian representatives left hope for a compromise, and he assessed them as sufficiently constructive.
The new head of Iran's Supreme National Security Council has proved to be a much tougher negotiator than Ali Larijani. It was most likely because of this that he was appointed to the post, and also because he is Ahmadinejad's man.
This will complicate the solution of Iran's nuclear problem, including for legal reasons.
UN Security Council Resolution 1747, adopted last March, stipulates harsher sanctions against Iran unless it stops uranium enrichment.
IDF to present Iranian nuclear evidence to US military chief
Source: JPost
06 December 2007 – Disappointed after failing to make their case on Iran and influence the outcome of the United States's National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) released this week, Military Intelligence will present its hard core evidence on the Islamic Republic's nuclear program on Sunday to the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff during a rare visit he will be making to Israel.
Admiral Michael Mullen will land in Israel Sunday morning for a 24-hour visit that will include a one-on-one meeting with IDF Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, as well as with Defense Minister Ehud Barak.
According to a Time magazine article published Wednesday, Mullen is a member of the Pentagon's "anti-war [with Iran] group" that includes Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Admiral William Fallon, current commander of the US Central Command.
In a recent press briefing in Washington, however, Mullen took a hard-line approach, refusing to rule out the possibility that military force will be used to stop Iran's race towards nuclear power.
"I would never take the military option off the table," Mullen told reporters, although he stressed that his remark did not mean that force would be used. Diplomacy, he added, was very important.
Mullen's visit to
Israel will be exactly a week after the publication of the NIE
report that claimed Iran had frozen its nuclear military program in
2003 and has yet to restart it. During his visit, Military
Intelligence plans to present him with Israel's evidence that Iran
is in fact developing nuclear weapons.
