Germany in full support of French initiative

The German Foreign Ministry has announced today that they are supporting French calls for tougher sanctions on Iran.

The annoucement is in response to a letter from French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner to all EU nations calling for increased pressure on Tehran.

"The European Union had to be prepared if Iran refused to co-operate over its disputed nuclear program", a spokeswoman said today.
