IAEA chief Yukiya Amano said at a Davos session that "we do not have that much confidence if Iran has declared everything" and its best information "indicates that Iran has engaged in activities relevant to nuclear explosive devices." "For now they do not have the capacity to manufacture the fuel," he said. "But in the future, we don't know." In spite of his tough words to Iran, Ban said that dialogue among the "three-plus-three"
-- Germany, France and Britain plus Russia, China and the United States -- is the path forward. "There is no other alternative for addressing this crisis than peaceful ... resolution through dialogue," said Ban. Ban noted that there have been a total of five Security Council resolutions so far on the Iranian nuclear program, four calling for sanctions. As tensions have been on the rise recently, some political leaders in Israel and the United States have been speaking increasingly of the possibility of a military strike to eliminate, or at least slow down, what they allege is a determined effort by Iran to obtain nuclear weapons.
