Paris, Feb 6, SPA -- The international community is not seeking a confrontation with Iran over its nuclear programme, French Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy said on Monday, noting that talks with Tehran were still possible. Iran on Sunday ended snap U.N. checks of its nuclear sites and said it was resuming uranium enrichment, a day after being reported to the Security Council. Douste-Blazy urged Tehran to cooperate with the international community. "We tell them: There is still time to negotiate. But suspend sensitive nuclear activities," he told France Inter radio. "We must make people understand that the international community's goal is not punitive, it is only political. We are not looking for any confrontation, to the contrary, it's negotiations we are looking for," he said. The International Atomic Energy Agency voted on Saturday to report Iran to the Security Council but the top U.N. body will take no action until an IAEA report is delivered in March. --SPA 13 22 Local Time 10 22 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/323962
