EU comercial ties with Iran color attitude on coming confrontation

The confrontation wit Iran will likely not get much European support. Irans largest trading partner is Germany. "The EU, on the other hand, is negotiating a trade and cooperation agreement with Iran under a policy dubbed conditional dialogue,' which is meant to link improved ties with parallel progress on political issues."

"...Unlike over Iraq, Britain and France are on the same side for the moment in backing cautious engagement with Iran. Both also have oil investments in the country of 65 million people."
