lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the worrying developments in Iran and North Korea compel us, in the European Union, to speak with one voice. They also oblige us to work closely in tandem with the United States and all other countries that actually support the Non-Proliferation Treaty. While it is, of course, important that negotiations are being held with North Korea and Iran, and that dialogue is still possible, other means might have to be deployed if it transpired that the dialogue were not to yield any concrete or satisfactory results, for states such as North Korea and Iran which are in possession of nuclear weapons, form a threat to world peace. In the case of Iran, we must also ask ourselves why that country really needs nuclear energy, even for peaceful purposes. Moreover, it is politically worrying that an infringement of the Non-Proliferation Treaty can, in practice, be used inappropriately to demand all kinds of favourable conditions. The Treaty should be reinterpreted in such a way as to ensure that high-risk states can no longer indulge in any nuclear enrichment and processing whatever."@en1
