US seeks to resolve Iran nuclear crisis through diplomacy

The US State Department believes that diplomatic means of resolving the crisis around the Iranian nuclear program is the most acceptable, Report informs referring to AP.

Asked for comment, the US State Department told The Associated Press: “We will judge Iran’s leadership by their actions, not their words.” “We have long said that we ultimately view diplomacy as the best way to achieve an effective, sustainable solution with regard to Iran’s nuclear program,” it said. “However, we are far away from anything like that right now given Iran’s escalations across the board, including its nuclear escalations and its failure to cooperate” with the International Atomic Energy Agency, the United Nations nuclear watchdog.

“If Iran wants to demonstrate seriousness or a new approach, they should stop nuclear escalations and start meaningfully cooperating with the IAEA,” it said.
