White House: Ahmadinejad’s UN speech ‘predictable’
WASHINGTON — The White House says Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s speech Monday at the United Nations was full of “wild accusations.”
Spokesman Robert Gibbs says Ahmadinejad’s speech was predictable in failing to speak about the obligations his country hasn’t lived up to in dealing with its nuclear program. Gibbs says Iran is becoming further isolated in the world community.
Ahmadinejad is in New York for the state of a monthlong conference reviewing the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. He rejected allegations his country is developing nuclear weapons.
