In the process of Russia's accession to the WTO, a new problem has emerged. Four American senators said they are ready to vote against it if Russia does not stop implementing the contract to build a nuclear power plant in Iran. They fear that Tehran “will be able to enrich the nuclear fuel” used at nuclear power plants and will use it to produce nuclear weapons. In Russia they claim that all waste will be sent for processing to the Russian Federation. The next round of negotiations on Russia's accession to the WTO is scheduled for mid-October.
