  Hillary, Tzipi to Stop Iran Enrichment

By Press TV

January 23, 2009 "
Press TV" -- US secretary of state and Israel's foreign minister have reportedly reached an agreement to work together in dealing with Iran's nuclear program.

Israel's daily Haaretz said Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni and the new US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made the deal during a phone conversation on Thursday.

The report added that they also agreed to take joint measures to halt Iran's uranium enrichment program. Clinton officially gained the control of the US State Department on Thursday.

The US, Israel and their European allies accuse Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) signatory Iran of developing a nuclear program for military purposes. Tehran says it only seeks civilian applications of the technology.

Last week, Clinton said that the Obama administration would pursue 'an attitude toward engagement (with Iran) that might bear fruit'.

Germany's Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier also said, in a Thursday letter to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Berlin is ready to aid the Obama administration in resolving issues such as the Iranian nuclear standoff.
