India to take a joint stand on Iran nuke issue with Russia and China
India is holding Foreign Minister level consultation with China and Russia to oppose refering Iran to security council. According to media reports, India's External Affairs Minister K Natwar Singh on Monday [7 November] discussed with his Chinese counterpart Li Zhaoxing the forthcoming IAEA meeting on the Iran nuclear issue and agreed to remain in touch and work for a consensus on the matter. The telephonic conversation comes a day after Singh said he would favour revision of India's vote on Iran nuclear programme at the 24 November meeting of IAEA Board of Governors in Geneva if a resolution stronger than the one placed last time was put forward.
