(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, FOX NEWS HOST: Governor, nice to discover you, sir.
MITT ROMNEY, GOP PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE/FORMER MASSACHUSETTS GOVERNOR : Thanks, Greta, great being with you.
VAN SUSTEREN: Fun to have you. OK, sir, this particular a . m . I read that papers throughout Israel, and "Haaretz" will be reporting that this United States National Security Adviser Donilon is actually over here, and he had been briefing Prime Minister Netanyahu on a feasible strike. And I considered if you experienced a feeling that we live finer to war, or that will Israel is nearer to a warfare having Iran?
ROMNEY: Well, I understand that there's also reports that will that's not what exactly happened should the national security adviser seemed to be here, so we are going to should permit this countrywide security agent and also the Israeli government to share with people what precisely happened. But in which being said, I consider we all understand that we're better to discovering Iran being your nuclear nation than we were not too long ago. I occurred to communicate for the Herziliya management meeting five a long time ago, laid out the seven actions I notion were required to dissuade Iran from becoming nuclear. It's taken long time. Some of people actions tend to be at the moment getting put in place, plus we hope of which those non-military alternatives will be effective inside preserving Iran out of choosing a lessons which usually would likely call for different options.
VAN SUSTEREN: I speculate the reason why I has been a little bit suspicious happens because this prime minister believed to you this morning, he or she pronounces we have to often be sincere in addition to point out that the sanctions as well as diplomacy so far haven't challenge your Iranian nuclear plan one particular iota. So I notion that is definitely almost your best minister saying, look, anyone know, Iran's dancing as well as sanctions may not be working. Nothing will be working. And basically you will be giving people a word of advice this may possibly be magnified as compared with most of us thought.
ROMNEY: Well, I are unable to talk for any perfect minister, but I can show you in which I believe we must carry out the many political, fiscal and diplomatic measures which have been possible for the world to place pressure upon Iran, to have all of them understand what the item means to often be crippled economically, diplomatically, through virtue in their nuclear ambitions. But on the same time, most of us recognize in which when straight down the road, these sanctions tend to be ineffective, that marilyn and i possess various other options, understanding that it truly is unwanted that will America so to the globe pertaining to Iran for you to grow to be your nuclear nation.
