While Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is the most prominent Iranian leader, it's also true that he actually has very little role in foreign policy.
It now appears that officials who are involved in Iranian foreign policy are telling him to STFU, with Ali Akbar Velayati, a top foreign policy adviser to supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, saying that, "Iranian officials must avoid making 'provocative' statements", and Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki saying that the EU proposals on Uranium enrichment were "constructive".
There are more adults in the various executive branches of Iran than there are in the US White House.
