Military confrontation seems inevitable if no new Iran nuclear deal, France says
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe window to reach a new deal to curb Iran’s nuclear program is narrow and if it is not achieved, then a military confrontation seems “almost inevitable,” French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot says.
“We only have a few months until the expiration of this (2015) accord,” he tells a parliamentary hearing. “In case of failure, a military confrontation would seem to be almost inevitable.”
Barrot adds that new European Union sanctions on Iran linked to the detention of foreign citizens in the Islamic Republic would also be approved in the coming weeks.
