"Mr President, Baroness Ashton, I am in no doubt that the European Parliament must speak out on Iran and its nuclear programme. It is not we, but the International Atomic Energy Agency which has serious fears over the possible military aspects of the Iranian nuclear programme, and as the evidence shows, Iran is working on the creation of a nuclear explosion device. We did not force Iran to become a party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, in relation to which Iran itself has renounced attempts to obtain nuclear weapons and is legally obliged to report all the nuclear activities which it conducts. It is not we, but Iran which still is not meeting its obligations under the relevant UN Security Council resolutions, including the latest of these, resolution 1929, and is not complying with the requirements of the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency. It is not we, but the policy of the Iranian Government in some areas which is creating a threat to stability and peace in the region. In this nuclear atmosphere, I would like you to remember, Baroness Ashton, about other problems related to Iran, which, after all, you have spoken about yourself: respect for human rights, and the situation in Camp Ashraf, which continues to be uncertain and unsafe. Members also asked about this during Question Hour. I should add that we must do everything possible to work together to resolve these problems."@en1
