Obama: World Powers ‘Unified’ and ‘Hopeful’ About Talks with Iran

President Barack Obama said today world powers were “unified” and  “hopeful” about talks with Iran next Wednesday in Baghdad.

“We're unified when it comes to our approach with Iran,” Obama said, surrounded by G-8 leaders at Camp David [AFP, 19 May].

President Obama added Iran’s inability so far to convince the world its program was peaceful was “of grave concern to all of us.” He said, however, that the leaders were “hopeful” about the talks in Baghdad.
