Iran is starting up its first nuclear power plant, built by Russia, in the southern city of Bushehr. Engineers from both countries have begun loading fuel into the reactor under the control of the UN's atomic watchdog.
Letting the Russians operate and manage the plant is quite acceptable. Judging from the video footage, the Russians have done a good job building it. How would Russia like to manage the Washington DC power company PEPCO. They need all the help they can get, judging from recent power outages after recent thunderstorms and rain.
Iran will really benefit economically from stable reliable electricity supply... Once they have a dozen or more reactors generating enough power for the whole country they should experience a period of growth and stability... it will be good for them.
Nothing wrong with peaceful use of nuclear en. on Iranian part...Up to now there is not one single material evidence that Iran try to produce n.weapons.West denies further enrichment plants on Iranian soil but Usa promise Vietnam, just two weeks ago, to build and also GIVE THE PERMISION TO ENRICH URANIUM ON THEIR HOME SOIL???!!! Duble standards are in place...We can but you can not! Well, it will not be so !All credit to Russia for finishing and starting Busher.Nevertheless, Iran will advance peacefuly no matter what! I am against spread of Nuc.weapons, becouse World is enough a bad place as it is and I don't like to see worse than that... It sems to me,there is nothing wrong with Iran in this case but with West..
Strong ties between Russia and Iran is benefical for both sides. As it is clear there's no hint that they have any small deviation from international laws.Iran is firmly to go with it's nuclear issue that knows it as it's evident right and more discussion in this case just comlicates the conditions.
Congratulations to Iran, Russia and all others who helped.
This new victory for Iran has left a lot of politicians with egg on their face. After all the word noise Israel backed off and accepted defeat on this issue. The danger is the gusto this creates for Iran because Iran is currently on a roll. If Israel ever gets the courage to make a move the consequences could be devastating for both iran and Israel. The big oil money of the Arab/Muslim world is moving America away from Israel and into the other big money camp. War is imminent in that region, but hopefully the grim reaper can be held at bay for a little while longer. Can Israel continue to survive under the current conditions? Before long it will be apparent that Israel must go it alone. Will they prevail or give in to the pressure once again?
Congratulations to Iran and Russia for this great job. This is really a smart and wise decision to create and use other clear energy source. By other hand, It would be better for Iran to put into russian hands the control and operations of this plant and implement an extreme sophisticated surveillance system to avoid inminent sabotages. ¿Why on russians hands?. while there has russian people in this plant is not so easy to someone try to damage it.
This plant is a confirmation that the talented and capable Iranian people can not be prohibited from advancing to the height of their potential, no matter how much the US may howl her protests.
