Put that there had been reports over the weekend that the Prime Minister had told President Bush that if there was any military action against Iran, then the UK would not participate, the PMOS said that he was not aware of the report, therefore he would not comment on any report that he had not read. We had said consistently, as indeed had the White House, that the approach we were trying to take was a diplomatic one. The PMOS said that nobody should be in any doubt at all about the seriousness of the situation that we faced. People only had to read the comments of the Iranian President to realise the dangers that were inherent in this situation. That was why we had taken the matter to the UN, and why we had received a Presidential statement from the UN. The obligation was on Iran to address its international obligations. Put that it was reported in the Sunday Mirror that the Prime Minister might be meeting with the President of Iran, the PMOS said that the story was also wrong.
