This article says Germany and America disagree, 
http://www.nytimes.com/2003/11/18/international/europe/18EURO.html?ex=1069736400&en=5e8feb38a1f12998&ei=5062&partner=GOOGLE
but I happen to have another view what was said.
Quote one:
FOREIGN MINISTER FISCHER:  Well, first of all, I think it's very important that
  we are moving forward, based on realism, and realism must be based on
  transparency and these are the basic principles of the agreement, the three of
  us, the Foreign Minister of the United Kingdom, France and myself reached with
  the Iranian side in Tehran.
  I think we are moving in the right direction, but we must go now into the
  details.  It means full compliance, and this must be measured by the IAEO.  So,
  if we are moving in the right direction, I think it's a good message, but it
  must be based, once again, on realism.
Quote Two:
SECRETARY POWELL:
"realism means making sure that the Iranians tell us every single thing
  there is to know about what they have been doing with respect to nuclear
  developments of all kinds so that the international community can make an
  informed, comprehensive and full judgment as to what they have been doing and
  whether they have stopped doing the things that we have been suggesting for
  some time they were doing, that were inconsistent with their obligations and
  should cause all of us to have serious concerns about judging too quickly
  whether or not we have now received the full and complete story from the
  Iranians."
interesting isn't it,.  It just depends on what you want to write which quotes you actually use.
