Eamonn Fitzgerald's Rainy Day

Speaking at The Munich Conference on Security Policy, Iran's deputy minister for international and legal affairs, Gholamali Koshroo, has urged Iraq to disarm, but emphasised his country's opposition to a war. He also stressed the need to deal with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Koshroo spoke in English and delivered a moderate message that ended with a call for the Muslim world and the West to develop a broader view of each other. This is the first time Tehran has been represented at the Munich gathering.
