Press Release: Carnegie Endowment Supports Rice’s Statement on Iran
Published on May 31, 2006
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 31, 2006

Welcoming this morning’s statement on Iran by Secretary Rice, Carnegie President Jessica Tuchman Mathews said:
“This is an important step, which should be welcomed by the entire world, including Iran. The new policy advances both U.S. and global security interests by responding in a calm and sensible way to Iran's invitation to dialogue. A negotiated solution is the way forward and the Iranians must stop their enrichment and reprocessing activities for talks to proceed. It makes no sense to talk while they build. Now the onus is on the Iranian regime to respond in a similarly constructive manner.”
