Threats of a military strike cannot stop Iran’s first nuclear power plant in Bushehr from being launched, believes Dmitry Rogozin, Russia’s permanent representative to NATO.










This nuclear power plant has more symbolic meaning for Russia, Iran and the global South at large and the Muslim world in particular- that Russia is willing to share its cutting technologies including nuclear technologies with those who lack these advanced technology is key to the dream of new multi-polar world order. Russia is taking the universal moral responsibility for the peaceful sharing of technology. Iran now has no reason to disrespect Russia and work in nuclear weapons in hidden labs. Now, the Iranian population can focus on developing their society’s needs. The U.S and the British and U.S dominated EU have lost any moral credibility in their aggressive attempt to impose unjust economic blockade against Iran. In WWII it was primarily Russians, and of course, to a lesser extent other allies, who put the break to the imperialist domination of the World. Today, Russia is repeating its moral duty by easing the tension between Iran and the Western powers. The U.S cannot control key technologies, including nuclear technologies- as geopolitical means of control and domination. One thing I am certain is this is great step forward for the relationship between Russian and the Global South. This peaceful transfer of technology from Russia to Iran shows that Russia wants to see meaningful development of the Global South. This is important historical milestone after 500 years of fake technological transfer from the Global North to the Global South, we can see how real sharing of technologies between Europe and the global south can bring the enlightenment dreams of collective human progress closer to reality. It is also wise that Russia is running this plant and is able to control the spent fuel from the plant.
