Iran Seeks 1,350 Tons of Uranium

All for peaceful purposes of course.

Iran is close to clinching a deal to clandestinely import 1,350 tons of purified uranium ore from Kazakhstan, according to an intelligence report obtained by the Associated Press on Tuesday. Diplomats said the assessment was heightening international concern about Tehran’s nuclear activities.

Such a deal would be significant because Tehran appears to be running out of the material, which it needs to feed its uranium enrichment program.

The report was drawn up by a member nation of the International Atomic Energy Agency and provided to the AP on condition of that the country not be identified because of the confidential nature of the information.

“Causing concern”….I can hardly wait until they get ‘distressed’ when Iran lobs its first nuke.
THE ONE’s “reach out” policy is working out so well.
