"With its increasing international isolation over its activities in the Caucasus Russia is unlikely to feel in a cooperative mood about imposing increased sanctions on its client, Iran."

I do believe Russia has been thumbing its nose at the West for a long time. We have just been gullible in believing what they say for Western consumption (Do we have a better name than the West now?). They will do what they want regardless of any agreement with the West.

Ummmm.. it was 6000 of them at the end of July.
No fault to you, Dave, but I suspect given the constantly shifting numbers we can stop taking these sand rats seriously.

Let them, a Uranium based weapons program is a money sink, with an upper limit on the yield of the weapons. If we can keep them working on this instead of a Plutonium program, we'd all be much better off. With some good propaganda, we can even get the population blaming their economic problems on the government's insistence on wasting money on it, resulting in both a change of government and a dismantling of the program.
