Former British foreign secretary Jack Straw condemned the failure of diplomatic efforts to solve the argument over Iran's nuclear energy. Straw talking to IRNA , said he was “hopeful” of a resolution when Iran voluntarily suspended enriching uranium under the 2003 Tehran Declaration and subsequent Paris Agreement to allow full negotiations. However he fell short of explaining why negotiators never fulfilled their duties under the agreements. Straw has been a labor MP for more than 30 years and has been involved in directly negotiating with Iran. “I was hopeful but it was a very difficult issue, Iranian people have the reputation as hard negotiators and I suppose they feel we were too,” he said. Straw insisted that the former US president George W Bush “towards the end was seized to reach an understanding with Iran”. He also welcomed Barack Obama to accommodate with Iran in his Cairo speech.
