Israel's Warning To UK On Relations With Iran
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu urges Britain not to be "duped" by Iran's recent "charm offensive" in an interview with Sky News.
新聞背景:
以色列總理內塔尼亞胡在接受英國《金融時報》采訪時表示,在主要的西方國家恢復與伊朗的外交關系前,伊朗必須停止對以色列的威脅。內塔尼亞胡說,伊朗呼吁消滅作為聯合國成員之一的猶太國家。而如果英國要表明恢復與德黑蘭的外交關系,那么在此之前,后者須停止此類號召。2011年秋,英國關閉了其駐德黑蘭大使館。此前一周,英國與伊朗宣布,雙方將開始建立聯系,以全面恢復兩國的外交關系。
美國國防部長查克哈格爾告訴以色列國防部長摩西亞阿隆,美方將對解決伊朗核問題所面臨的挑戰“保持清醒”,不會放棄阻止伊朗獲取核武器的堅定政策。
英國外交大臣黑格宣布,英國將任命新的駐伊朗非常駐代辦,以重開與伊朗接觸的渠道。黑格說,伊朗新政府上臺后,向外界展示了更加積極的一面。英國必須全面測試伊朗政府的誠意,為此而保持溝通渠道暢通是非常重要的。英國愿意與伊朗進行更為直接的接觸,進一步改善雙邊關系。
伊朗外長扎里夫表示,希望伊朗核問題能夠在一年內得出解決方案,并在10月15日到16日在日內瓦舉行的會談上向美國等世界大國呈現伊朗核問題的解決計劃。
It's a British decision but I hope that in exploring this, they will insist that Iran dismantle its nuclear weapon's program. That will be a good insistance as well as asking him to stop calling for the violation of Israel, member sate of the United Nations. What they've done is to use the negotiations not really to buy time but to advance their program. Why should the sanction by lifted? See, you've got a situation right now where Iran is on the ropes. They are on the ropes. Their economy is about to collapse, but they've also used that time to get very close to threshold status, to be able to produce enough fissile material for the core of atomic bombs. That's the heart part of making atomic bombs. Now you've got them. They are in the tough round in a boxing match, and they are saying they are the ropes and instead of growling, they are smiling. And you are supposed to let them rise from the ropes and continue to make atomic bombs.
But nobody is talking about taking the pressure offf Iran. What they are talking about is warming relation, surely that's a step forward. Are you in danger of appearing almost petulant and belligerant at the time being out of the step with the rest of the world.
No. Of course not.I was accused of being petulant and belligerant at the time when the air spreads two years ago. And I said it's not quite what you think it's gonna be. They may hold that Islamist tide will sweep all the hope for democracy. The time that they said it to me, I'm out of state, but I'm not petulant or so. Well I think people realize now that I was good, they also realize I am good now.
