Brazil cautions on sanctions against Iran
Brazil cautioned on Tuesday against a new round of UN sanctions in response to Iran's expanded nuclear program and urged Western powers to step up dialogue instead.
"We don't want Iran to have nuclear arms, let there be no doubt about that. They, like other countries, have the right to a peaceful (nuclear power) program," Foreign Minister Celso Amorim told reporters in the capital Brasilia. "We want to reach certainty (on Iran's program) through dialogue and peaceful means." (Reuters)
