He said British Foreign Secretary William Hague, upon his arrival to attend the meeting that his country did not think after the military action. He also said German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said his country would not participate in any discussion of a military strike against Iran, noting that the mere discussion of such options will have a negative effect.
