    • Iran’s police chief Gen. Ismail Ahmadi Moghaddam warned protesters against using text and e-mail messages for arranging protest rallies, stating that these systems were being monitored and people misusing such technology would be prosecuted. Iran’s opposition has depended on internet and mobile phones to communicate due to the ban on pro-reform newspapers.1

    Representatives of Britain, France, Germany, Russia, the United States and China met in Geneva to discuss Iran’s continued nuclear intransigence. China however sent a low-level diplomat to the meeting, with reports indicating that this was an indication of its unwillingness to support tough new sanctions against Iran.2
