US embassy cable - 04MADRID773

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

1. (C) We met with Marcos Rodriguez Cantero of the 
International Disarmament division at MFA on March 3 and 
conveyed US views on the IAEA Iran Report.  Rodriguez told us 
that Spain shares US concerns about Iranian non-proliferation 
and the findings contained in the IAEA Iran report. 
Non-proliferation has been high on the Spain-Iran bilateral 
agenda, including at the Presidential level.  Rodriguez noted 
that the EU-3 believes that a carrot and stick approach is 
most effective with the Iranians.  The EU may thus seek a 
more flexible position on Iran.  Nonetheless, Rodriguez 
reiterated that Spain, as chair of the IAEA Board of 
Governors, favored taking a strong stance to get Iran to meet 
fully its non-proliferation pledges.
