Obama government plans to sanctions and diplomatic efforts to stop Iran from getting a nuclear capability does not work, in the Middle East U.S. supreme commander told the senate a committee on Tuesday, Tehran denies and cheating history and "beyond any reasonable for peaceful purposes uranium enrichment activities."
James Matisse general, the U.S. central command chief says, it still can use sanctions and other aspects of pressure, make Tehran "restore reason". But he also warned that he thinks, Iran's ongoing negotiations, buy.
"This should not be in any way to explain, we should not be trying to negotiate, I still support, we are taking direction," Matisse to the senate armed services committee. "I just - I have to pay quite a dim view of the Iranian people, frankly."
Matisse blunt assessment comes as the international community to continue anxiety and uncertainty, Iran's uranium enrichment programs. Tehran denies that any work or interests, nuclear weapons, but believe that its uranium enrichment aims to develop nuclear weapons international leader. The head of the UN nuclear agency said Monday that he cannot guarantee that Iran's nuclear activities are peaceful, unless Tehran more cooperation and inspectors be allowed to access web site, they think weapon equipment development work, may occur.
Meanwhile, Iran's suggestion said are interested in some sanctions may be cancelled, if it ships in the storage material, can quickly turn to nuclear fission core and shutter factory production.
Obama government will not rule out military action to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. Moreover, from the senator's questions, Matisse said, the U.S. military has the ability to Iran's knee.
"There are some means to do this," he said, "maybe even a very short open conflict, but you can be sure, I am ready for the President's one of the options."
Senator kerry's ai, RN. H., ask what the United States needs to prove that it is serious, it will not accept an Iran with nuclear weapons.
"I worry, if they (Iran) continue to use negotiation delay, we will be in a position where they have the ability to nuclear weapons, and then everything is too late," she said.
Matisse also said Iran will continue in Syria, Tehran government support bashar al-assad regime to the opposition force, and Iran's revolutionary guard struggle, make other foreign militants constitute more and more security threats. When asked if the United States have contingency plans to cope with the collapse of the regime may, Matisse said, "peace plan" and other Allies in the region.
And he said, behold, in Syria's chemical weapons website is becoming more and more weak, because the chaos and civil war battle continues, although some weapon has been transferred to safer ground.
"Our planning is to consider this point degree, it can. I will tell you, we have a choice of preparation," he said.
Matisse said, bashar al-assad regime collapse will be "the biggest strategic setback, Iran in 25 years." If this happens, Matisse, says he believes that Iran will within the territory of the armed militia in Syria, redouble our efforts, in other countries, such as Iraq and yemen.
When asked about the armed rebels tried to overthrow President assad, Matisse said, he has a concern, because a "important minority" against islamist socialist views and some and "base" organization.
