G-7 Nations Say Russia Too Early on Iran Missile Sale
(Bloomberg) Patrick Donahue and Gregory Viscusi - Germany and Italy said Russia's planned sale of S-300 air-defense systems to Iran before world powers complete an agreement on the country's nuclear program is premature. German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said Tuesday that such deals should wait until a full agreement is reached. "To talk about rewards already is too early." Italian Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni said, "When at the end of June there is a complete accord, Italy will be one of the countries in there trying to reestablish commercial relations, but first we need the accord, we shouldn't be getting ahead of ourselves."
