Royal, in J'lem: Only I will oppose Iranian civilian nuclear program

By Daniel Ben-Simon, Haaretz Correspondent

French presidential candidate Segolene Royal said during a visit to Israel on Monday that she is the only candidate who will oppose a civilian nuclear energy program in Iran.

"I am the only one who is opposed to Iran gaining any nuclear capability, even civilian," she said during a meeting with Knesset Speaker Dalia Itzik. "Because I know, that the transformation from civilian capability to military capability is very easy.

The Socialist Party candidate also reiterated her condemnation of comments made in her presence by a Lebanese parliament member, in which he compared Israel to the Nazis. "[Had I heard the comments] I would not have overlooked them," she said.

Royal also met with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, and said she was very happy to have the opportunity to meet the prime minister and hear from him personally regarding issues facing the region, as well as express her impressions of the situation.

Olmert said he too was happy to have the opportunity to exchange opinions.
