    US, EU express "grave concerns" over Iran's nuclear program
    12.12.2009 15:19 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The White House expressed "grave concerns" Friday
    over Iran's nuclear program, saying there would be "consequences" if
    Iran fails to comply with requirements of the United Nations and the
    UN nuclear watchdog International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

    "The United States echoes the grave concerns expressed by the European
    Council today regarding Iran's nuclear program," White House spokesman
    Robert Gibbs said.

    Gibbs said Iran has not taken advantage of opportunities to build
    trust and confidence, instead it has increased the international
    community's concerns about its nuclear program.

    He said if Iran continues to fail to comply with the United Nations'
    and IAEA's requirements, "there will be consequences."
    The spokesman said "the offer of constructive engagement is still on
    the table," calling Iran to uphold its international obligations, and
    return to negotiations with the five permanent members of the UN
    Security Council - Britain, China, France, Russia, and the United
    States - plus Germany.
