Russia Shipped Nuclear Fuel to Iran

by John Little on 17/12/2007

More fallout, so to speak, resulting from our schizophrenic positions on Iran’s nuclear ambitions:

The United States, which believes Tehran harbours ambitions to acquire a nuclear weapon, had urged Moscow not to send the fuel.

However, Russia said that it received assurances from Iran that the shipped fuel will not be used for any other purpose. It said there was no evidence to prove that Iran is seeking nuclear weapons, and that the Bushehr project could not be used in a weapons programme in any case.

And they only have to wave our own National Intelligence Estimate in our faces when we object.
