Mr. Chair, there is nothing in writing on that agreement that was talked about in April.
While we appreciate the efforts of P5+1 negotiations, our government believes that every diplomatic measure should be taken to ensure the Iranian regime never obtains nuclear weapons. Until Canada is satisfied that this is the case, our sanctions will remain in full force. We will judge Iran by its actions, not words. Canada will continue to defend the rights of those suffering at the hands of the Iranian regime and will be a voice for all those who have been silenced by Iran's repressive actions.
Already the Iranians have enough highly-enriched uranium to produce medical isotopes for the next 25 years. There is no reason for them to enrich uranium any further, other than for military reasons.
