French president extremism, obstacle in way of resolving Iran's N-case

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Sept 17, IRNA
Iran-France-Extremism
Dealing with international developments in a way mostly different from the US hegemonic approach was an old tradition for Europe that considered it as a way to maintain its independence from its transatlantic ally.

Europe has always been keeping a gesture of making decisions independently from the US as Europeans considered their continent as the birthplace of democracy-seeking social movements and the offspring of new history of the West.

In the US-Europe coalition, France was, most of the time, less obedient to Washington's policies than Britain although Paris has always been a partner of Washington.

According to an old tradition, each message coming from the US was interpreted differently by Paris and London.

However, the new occupants of the Ellyse are no longer following the path of their ancestors as they are trying to be a copy of the White House.

Since President Nicolas Sarkozy took office, He has been trying to take an American skin by adopting an even tougher policy than that of the US for dealing with the international developments.

Sarkozy was the first European or even the world leader who, after winning presidency, visited the US President George W Bush.

The occupants of the Ellyse have become translators of the White House policies in Europe and have adopted a tone that is even harder, even more inflammatory and more illogical than that of Washington.

While the issue of Iran nuclear case is closed to being resolved, thanks to the measures taken by Iran and the IAEA, the extremism of the French leaders is creating an obstacle in this path.

The new French leaders are trying to exceed even their elder American brothers while their European partners are talking about moderation and favorably are welcoming the historic agreement between Iran and the IAEA.

At the international level, the new government of France has possibly preferred more tension than peace as it has now stepped on the road of creating more tensions by adopting extremist stands.

The French people will never forget the present time when a person with a non-European approach has moved into the Ellyse.
