London, Apr. 18 – United States President George W. Bush said on Tuesday that “all options are on the table” for dealing with the threat of Iran’s suspected nuclear weapons program.

Bush told reporters that he preferred to have the standoff resolved diplomatically.

“We want to solve this issue diplomatically and we’re working hard to do so. The best way to do so is, therefore, to be a united effort with countries who recognise the danger of Iran having a nuclear weapon. And that’s why we’re working very closely with countries like France and Germany and Great Britain”, Bush said.

Still, the U.S. President did not rule out military action or United Nations sanctions.

He added that he intend to bring up the issue of Tehran’s nuclear ambitions with Chinese President Hu Jintao when the two world leaders meet on Thursday at the White House.
