"I was pleased to hear the Council’s response, because megaphone diplomacy is not going to work in the case of Iran.
When George Bush made his famous speech, naming Iran as part of the ‘axis of evil’, Iran was part of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. It is now no longer part of that treaty, partly because it feels exiled from the rest of the world. If you treat people as evil, they will act as if they are evil.
Will the Council assure us that it will continue dialogue with Iran but not get involved in the internal politics, not – as some of my colleagues have suggested – backing individual political parties, but opening up Iran to wider discussion? EU backing for a single political party would be death to that party inside Iran."@en1
