Britain’s Foreign Secretary on Sunday insisted economic sanctions and negotiations had to be given “a real chance” to convince Iran to abandon its nuclear ambitions.
William Hague made the comments in an interview with BBC1’s Andrew Marr Show, in which he warned that a nuclear-armed Iran would result in another cold war in the Middle East.
“They would either be attacked and there would be a war, or there would be a cold war in which Iran for the long term would be subject to these very intense economic sanctions and they would find that other nations in their region developed nuclear weapons,” the British Guardian quoted Hague as having said in the interview.
However, he urged against military action, although he said it was not ruled out as an option.
“I don't think a wise thing at this moment is for Israel to launch a military attack on Iran,” Hague said, adding, “I think Israel like everyone else in the world should be giving a real chance to the approach we have adopted on very serious economic sanctions and economic pressure and the readiness to negotiate with Iran. That's what we need to make a success of.” Read the rest on: Arutz7
