President Bush urged the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to hold Iran accountable for its actions based on international agreements prohibiting the proliferation of nuclear weapons. On Wednesday in London, Mr. Bush stated that the agency must be honest in its intentions and emphasize the necessity for Iran to adhere to its commitments.
