lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, the statements by the Council and the Commission, as well Parliament’s resolution, reflect another failure of the Union’s policies. The joint resolution carefully presents a line of justifications for Iran’s nuclear programme. At the same time, the well-known ultimate goal of the Iranian Government is already not a distant one. We must state clearly that there is a real danger as the terrorist and terrorist-supporting fundamentalist state is going to obtain nuclear weaponry by ‘confusing and deceiving stupid Europeans’, as it was openly described in July 2005 by the head of Iran’s nuclear programme. If the European Parliament marginalises this great danger to international peace and to the future of democracies, this Parliament will marginalise itself. Paradoxically, the only effective opposition to the rulers of the terrorist state was put on the terrorist list and persecuted in Europe. If the Mujahideen movement were taken off this list, it would be a real and sound European policy. I now turn to the resolution. Special pro-Iranian and American warning points, as stated in Amendment 12, if adopted, would be politically unwise and counter-productive. Two amendments – the first and fourth – introduce the clause about the Security Council, which is to be supported. Possible opposition to it should be explained as a service for Russia, in order to prevent it from an unpleasant veto in the Security Council. I do not understand why the European Union should lose face in order to save Russia’s. In the event of such a veto, we would realise how strategically reliable our alleged strategic partner really is. If Amendment 1 is rejected, the whole resolution has no sense but prevailing surrender."@en1
