Russia: Iran’s nuclear power plant will start up in August

Share:

A top Russian diplomat reportedly says Iran’s first nuclear power plant will finally start up in August.

Moscow and Tehran signed a US$1 billion contract to build the 1,000-megawatt Bushehr plant in 1995, but delays—the latest caused by the replacement of damaged equipment and an attack of malicious software on the plant’s computer system—left the plant unfinished for years.

Russian Deputy Foreign Ministry Sergei Ryabkov was quoted by Russian news agencies as saying Monday that the plant is “completed” and will start up in early August.

The United States and some of its allies believe the plant is part of an Iranian attempt to develop nuclear weapons. Iran denies the accusation saying its nuclear intentions are peaceful.

    Russia , what good came from this country since the beginning of the 20 th century? name one , maybe defeated the Nazi but Staline killed more Russian and Ukrainians and Polish 3 or 4 times what the Nazi did,
    What things came from Russia other than supporting terrorism and nations like Syria ,PLO, their involvement in the assassination of Bashir by providing the explosives from East Germany to Syria and then to SSNP Nabil El Alam to Chartouni,
    Did you ever buy a frigin car made in Russia , a fridge, a microwave, or a transistor radio. But you can buy nuclear plant, terrorist in African nations can buy arms from Russia to commit massacres in Rawanda and Congo. Amazing is Russia really ,it was never a democratic country, from the Czars to Communism until now, I guess it is a combination of the Russian behavior tendency for dictatorship than run in their blood !!!

      Human, but not humane.
      Religionism or anti-religionism … control by ‘one’ is what it’s all about. (see Syria) 
      Under the Czars, a huge country of uneducated peasants. When the communists took control (a coup of the elected), they basically killed all the intellectuals. (Standard dictator practice – see Iran or China, etc.) The peasant Stalin was a buddy of peasant Hitler until Hitler turned on him. The west then used Stalin to help put down the greater evil of Nazism, but then the evil of Communism was left to kill itself slowly over 70 years. Now the country is controlled by peasant Super-Capitalist Putin and a few like-minded others (ex-KGB).
      At least these days there are some new intellectuals – mostly allowed to live, it seems – yet ‘the system’ of communist thought holds them down still. But when they took the thumb off other countries a little, we had Cosovo as an example of how long stupid ancient thought remains in the brains of the peasants.
        Do you see any similarities here?
