Israeli military manoeuvres jeopardize global peace, says Tehran
Tehran - Israeli military manoeuvres aimed at warning Iran jeopardize global peace, an Iranian government spokesman said Saturday.
The New York Times reported Friday that Israel carried out a major air force exercise earlier this month that United States officials say appeared to be a rehearsal for a potential attack on Iran's nuclear facilities.
"Although Israel has not the strength to attack Iranian interests and such a plan would be impossible to implement, but such Israeli military manoeuvres and threats jeopardize global peace," government spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham told reporters.
Elham further reiterated that Iran would not accept suspension of uranium enrichment as a basis for any negotiations with the world sextet - United Nations Security Council members plus Germany - and would only discuss the peaceful nature of its atomic projects. (dpa)
