Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Lord Corbett of Castle Vale (Labour). It was answered by Lord Triesman (Labour) on Monday, 23 May 2005.
Iran: Nuclear Programme
- Question
- What is their response to reports that the Iranian Government are to resume uranium enrichment which could be weapons-related.
- Answer
-
My Lords, representatives of the Government of Iran have made a number of statements indicating a wish to resume the conversion of uranium at its facility at Esfahan. We have made it clear to Iran that such action would breach the November 2004 Paris agreement. In this case, the United Kingdom, along with France and Germany, shall have no choice but to support referring Iran's nuclear programme to the UN Security Council. We remain committed to seeking mutually acceptable long-term arrangements with Iran, but that must be within the context of the Paris agreement.
