West, Stuborness Doesn't Pay Off!

Hans Blix, fmr. head of UN inspections in Iraq | February 25, 2009

Albeit at a slow pace, Iran is proceeding with its uranium enrichment program. ++ Unless the West completely reconsiders its diplomacy tactic vis à vis Iran, it is difficult to imagine a changed scenario: "years have been lost to ineffective approaches." ++ Obama's initiative to have direct negotiations with Tehran should have been opted for earlier. ++ An alluring option could be following the line taken by the US in talks with North Korea, in which guarantees against attack are issued as part of a nuclear agreement.
