CONSTRUCTIVE DIALOGUE
Marco Morales, spokesman for Mexico's U.N. mission, confirmed receipt of the letter. He said Mexico circulated it to the rest of the council and would only take the issue further if council member states asked to do so.Iran said on Monday it would welcome constructive dialogue on its nuclear program with the five permanent Security Council members-the United States, Britain, France, China and Russia-and Germany.The council has adopted five resolutions demanding that Iran freeze its uranium enrichment program, three of which imposed sanctions against Tehran. Iran has so far refused to stop enriching uranium.U.S. President Barack Obama has promised to pursue a policy of engagement with Iran in an attempt to persuade Tehran to suspend its enrichment program. Former U.S. President George W. Bush pursued a policy of isolating Iran, branding it a member of an "axil of evil" with North Korea and prewar Iraq.
Washington cut off ties with Tehran in 1980 after militants seized the U.S. Embassy in the Iranian capital.U.S. officials, diplomats and analysts say Obama opposes the use of military force against Iran's nuclear sites but is worried that Israel, which bombed Iraq's nuclear reactor at Osiraq in 1981, might bomb Iranian sites if engagement fails.If Tehran continues to enrich uranium, analysts say, Obama will have no choice but to support a push for a new round of U.N. sanctions against the Islamic Republic later this year.
