Many Western diplomats who took part in the session stick to that opinion.
Germany, Britain and France gradually came to the end of their tether as they had long been coaxing Iran into compliance with the IAEA General Conference's and Board of Governors' demands, complained a German diplomat who insisted on anonymity.
The EU Troika mediated Iranian-IAEA conflict settlement on many occasions. Now, they may back a US-offered tough move-to offer the Iranian nuclear file to the United Nations Security Council, which will be free to take anti-Iranian sanctions.
Our interviewee thinks the IAEA Board of Governors may make the decision at its nearest session, of November 25, unless Iran offers exhaustive and transparent answers by that time to all IAEA questions concerning its nuclear practical projects and R&D, and freezes uranium enrichment efforts.
Iran is urgently to convince the world that its nuclear programs are civil-oriented, Michel Barnier, French Minister of Foreign Affairs, said in the UN General Assembly lobby in New York City. Now is the time we need Iranian safety guarantees, and we said so to Iranian rulers. If things do not take that turn, the Iranian nuclear project issue will certainly come up at the UN Security Council, he warned.
