Berlin - The German government Monday said it opposes military action as a means of stopping Iran's controversial nuclear programme.
A foreign ministry spokesman, Andreas Peschke, said Germany favoured political and diplomatic pressure as a deterrent if Tehran neglects 'to make full disclosures.'
The spokesman called reports that Israel was preparing to strike Iranian nuclear sites 'speculation' and declined further comment.
Peschke nevertheless noted that Iran's nuclear programme gave grounds for great concern.
Germany's position is that Iran must offer proof that it is not seeking to make nuclear arms, Peschke told dpa.
