PARIS:US White House hopeful Barack Obama said on Friday that Iran should not wait for the new US president to be elected to resolve its dispute with the West over its nuclear programme.
“Iran should accept the proposals that President (Nicolas) Sarkozy and the EU… are presenting now. Don’t wait for the next president,” he said at a joint press conference with Sarkozy in Paris. The comments came after world powers warned Iran has only a fortnight to respond to their latest offer seeking to end a five-year crisis over its nuclear programme, which Tehran claims has peaceful ends, but which others fear masks nuclear weapons ambitions.
The US election is scheduled for November.
