Passages with Solved Precis

Internationally, the U.S. dilemma in Iran has certainly had its effect on allies and adversaries alike. The problem for Mr. Carter is that Iran is a big oil producer and supplies a considerable portion of the energy, need of America’s allies, particularly of Japan and West Germany. The allies are understandably reluctant to go the whole hog with punitive measures suggested by Washington, for two reasons: firstly, Iran has issued a firm threat to cut off oil to any nation joining the U.S. sanctions; secondly, as former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger remarked the other day. America’s allies are no longer sure whether any policy statement coming out of the White House ‘is for real’ or will be followed in short order by a contradictory one.

It actually, took some not-so-subtle arm twisting by Washington for the allies finally to fall reluctantly in line and withdraw their ambassadors from Tehran. A most potent U.S. argument is that the loss of Iranian oil, which the European nations fear would occur in any case if the U.S. is forced to go it alone e id has to resort to military measures. In other words, tag alone, or your worst tears come true. For the allies, it is damned you do and damned if you don’t.
