Paris : French President Nicolas Sarkozy has said that Iran’s nuclear standoff should be resolved through diplomatic means.
Speaking to French ambassadors abroad here Monday, he described the Iranian people as a great nation which does not deserve to be isolated.
Ruling out any military action against Iran, the French president regarded a possible bombardment of the country as a “catastrophe”.
Warning of confrontations between Western and Eastern civilizations, he said this would be the biggest danger threatening the whole world.
The gathering of French ambassadors abroad kicked off on Monday with the theme “How France should react in dealing with international issues”.
