U.K.'s Straw Rules Out Military Action on Iran Nuclear Plan

[NVMojo]

Sept. 2 (Bloomberg) -- U.K. Foreign Secretary Jack Straw ruled out military action to curtail Iran's nuclear program, saying ``nobody'' is talking about war.

``Nobody is proposing military action with respect to Iran,'' Straw said today after leading a meeting of European Union foreign ministers in Newport, Wales. ``This issue needs to be resolved and can be resolved by diplomatic means.''

The U.S. and EU are concerned that Iran has pushed ahead with enriching uranium, a process that could lead to the production of an atomic bomb. Through the United Nations' International Atomic Energy Agency, the EU has offered incentives including trade ties and technology for Iran to abandon the program.
