Press Gaggle 06/19/06 (Q Topic: Iran)
— Tuesday, June 20, 2006 — Q The focus on Iran with Europe, is there a concern that, you know, they're getting wobbly on this or something? MR. SNOW: No, actually it's -- one of the good things so far is that the EU3 have remained firm and also the Chinese, as well -- what you have is -- I'm sorry, the Russians, as well. No, at this point it's not that they're getting wobbly, it's just simply teeing up what is going to be a topic of conversation and of interest, obviously, to the EU. No, the Eu, as you know, was the first to lead the negotiations with Iran and the President is grateful for that and happy to be able to try to assist. Q Solidifying support or -- MR. SNOW: Well, the support is solid. It's really not -- Q What's the message? MR. SNOW: The message is -- look, it's also part of the democracy template, trying to secure democracy in the region, trying to make sure that external threats do not become a problem and a complication. I mean, you'll hear it in the speech -- real soon, as a matter of fact. White House Press Corps | Press Briefing | Tony Snow | News Media | Bush Administration | Iran
