U.S. Not Going to Attack Iran, Turkish FM Assures

PanARMENIAN.Net - "The U.S. doesn't plan any military operations against Iran. Washington just strengthens pressure upon this state in relation to the UN," Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul stated. When commenting on the outcomes of his meeting with Secretary of State Rice the Turkish FM remarked that his American counterpart said the U.S. is not going to attack Iran. "Rice said launching of a military operation against Iran is not the principal goal of the United States. Nevertheless President Bush views military interference as one of the possible variants. At present we are thinking of formation of a serious coalition to prevent Iran's nuclear program. This coalition will force Iran to cooperation," the Turkish FM said, reported APA.
