Laura Rozen is at The Hague to report on tomorrow’s United Nations summit on Afghanistan, which the Iranians have agreed to attend. Rozen finds the Iranians aren’t exactly sending their top dudes:
“„“They are talking, and they will be there at the table, but they are sending lesser representation that is not on the par” with the other delegations, notes Trita Parsi, president of the National Iranian American Council, a Washington group that advocates for engagement between Washington and Tehran. “It does send a signal,” that Iran is holding back somewhat on regional cooperation talks until “they have practical indications of America’s [larger] strategic objective with Iran,” he says. Tehran’s response is “predictable,” if unfortunate, he says, adding that. “Emulating Bush’s insistence on preconditions would be a mistake by Iran.”
