The newly elected French President Francois Hollande said
today in Washington after talks with President Barack Obama that France and the
US share views on Iranian nuclear program and that there was an agreement for
‘required firmness’ that Iran doesn’t get the nuclear military capacity
[McClatchy, 18 May].
ITAR-TASS News Agency reported that the French President
said he and Obama see ‘eye to eye’ on Iran.
"We see eye to eye on the Iranian issue. We might be
able to start negotiations with Iran. However, for that there must be the
certainty Teheran has no capability to make nuclear weapons," President
Hollande said [ITAR-TASS, 18 May].
Later in the day, President Hollande met with British
Prime Minister David Cameron at British Embassy in Washington and the two
leaders stressed their agreement on a range of issues including Iran [ITV News,
18 May].
