Ban says Israel attack against Iran �Unacceptable,� AFP reports
By Bloomberg

An Israeli military offensive against Iran would be �unacceptable,� United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said, expressing concern over the �fierce rhetoric� on the issue, Agence France-Presse reported.

�An attack against a country is unacceptable and the idea of a counter attack isn�t acceptable either,� Ban was quoted as saying in an interview with the French program �Internationales� to be aired today, AFP said.

Ban said he is �highly concerned by the political rhetoric over a possible military attack or a retaliation� and urged a return to dialog to resolve the conflict around�Iran�s nuclear program, the�news agency�said.

The main issue is Iranians� refusal to allow�International Atomic Energy Agency�inspectors to access sites inside the country, he said, calling for Iranian officials to �fully cooperate� with the UN�s nuclear watchdog, according to the report published yesterday.
