Cracks appear in united front as oil price threatened

Senior officials from Europe, America, Russia and China will meet in London today to devise a joint strategy to restrain Iran’s nuclear programme.

But as Iran threatened retaliation, including hints that it could seek to drive up the price of oil, cracks began to emerge among western leaders.
Iran’s move last week to restart its uranium enrichment programme has precipitated an international crisis.

America and the so-called EU3 that have led the diplomatic talks with Iran for the past two years – Britain, France and Germany – declared that Iran had crossed a “red line”.
