US hopes for peaceful solution of Iranian issue - Ambassador Fairfax

   ASTANA. February 6. KAZINFORM /Serik Sabekov/ The US hopes for a peaceful solution of the Iranian issue. US Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Kazakhstan Kenneth Fairfax has announced, answering questions of the students of the Academy of Public Administration under the Kazakh President.

"The last sanctions were adopted last week. The only role of these sanctions lies in the fact that Iran should not become a state having nuclear weapons. If Iran becomes such a state, it will be a signal of the greatest threat to the whole world," K.Faifax said.

The US Ambassador outlined that in the past few years there were held diplomatic discussions on this matter, after which sanctions against Iran were adopted.

"We do not give up and continue to hope and seek a peaceful solution," Fairfax resumed.
