Obama warns Iran: time running out for nuclear arms deal

Obama warns Iran: time running out for nuclear arms deal

Barack Obama made the comments in Seoul after warnings from Israel last month that it will consider military strikes against Iran rather than allow the country to become a nuclear-armed power.

"I believe there is a window of time to solve this diplomatically but that window is closing," said Mr Obama, speaking after talks with the Turkish prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Tehran insists its nuclear programme is for civilian purposes, although Israel, facing a shake-up in the regional balance of power, has threatened targeted strikes to stop it.

Mr Obama has cautioned Israel against using force against Iran while hopes remain diplomacy or sanctions could succeed, but has warned military action remains an option as long as Tehran presses ahead with its nuclear programme.
