Europe threatens action as Iran airs new 'confession' | Iran | Guardian Unlimited

I'm guessing the EU's definition of 'appropriate measures' over the British hostage situation is our definition of 'talking'.

The last two paragraphs of the article are interesting:

The captured sailors would not have had special "conduct after capture" training and will have to rely on common sense, military sources say. They would have been advised to say little about their families to avoid greater pressure. But formal training is usually reserved for special forces and pilots, who endure mock interrogations.

Military sources suggested the captives were unlikely to have any sensitive state secrets. "In the main, they should just use their common sense," said one official. Whether training for capture is reviewed as a result of this incident will depend on their eventual debriefing.

It had struck me as unusual that the British sailors would let themselves be used as tools for propaganda. Civilians I could understand, but the military? There's something wrong with that.
