Former Foreign Secretary Jack Straw MP argues that as negotiations between Iran and the P5+1 resume in Kazakhstan this week, ‘resolving the current impasse will require statesmanship of a high order from both sides’ and that ‘from the West, there has to be a better understanding of the Iranian psyche’. He says that even in the event of a nuclear-armed Iran, while the international community would have to pursue a policy of containment, war ‘is not an option’.
