The demonstrative ignoring Tehran of the UN resolution makes is more real than the power scenario

On the eve of Iran solemnly celebrated the national nuclear technology day. In the nuclear center in Natanze, where foreign diplomats were invited, the vice-president of the country, the head of the Iranian atomic energy organization Gormrazov Agazade, and President of Iran Mahmad Ahmadi Nezhad, performed. They officially announced that the country is moving on to the production of enriched uranium "on an industrial scale." This means that the equipment installed in the underground nuclear center in Natanze allows you to enrich uranium in quantities sufficient to maintain the activity of the atomic reactor there.

Also, on the eve of the deputy head of the Iranian Ministry of Internal Affairs returning from Moscow, General Mohammad Baker Zolkadr said in an interview with Iranian television that he freely entered Russia bypassing the existing sanctions of the UN . “Despite the fact that resolution No. 1747 imposes a ban on movement for some members of the Islamic Revolution Corps, including me, I visited Russia without any problems,” he said, having kept all the formalities in relation to the UN Security Council related to his visit, Moscow fulfilled. Because of this, the Russian Foreign Ministry had to make an official statement explaining the situation.

The celebration of the Day of Nuclear Technologies and the statements sounding on it about the entry of Iran into the club of nuclear powers take the Iranian nuclear crisis to a qualitatively new level. Recall that the aforementioned resolution of the UN Security Council No. 1747 dated March 24, 2007 gives the Iranian authorities a two -month period to "correct" - to curtail work on the enrichment of uranium. However, two weeks after the adoption of this resolution, Tehran burned the bridges, proving that he did not see any possibility of refusing to enrich Uranus, the Kommersant newspaper writes.

This raises the question of the world community about what actions to take after the end of May a certain osolum of a two -month ultimatum. Moreover, in the most difficult situation are supporters of the soft approach-Russia and China, still offering to limit themselves to measures of economic impact. In turn, a supporter of a tough approach - the USA - receives a strong argument that such measures are counter -productive, since they only strengthen the determination of Iran to become a nuclear power. Thus, having declared his country to enter the nuclear club, Ahmadi President Nezhad made a power scenario for resolving the Iranian nuclear crisis even more real, the newspaper notes.

It should be noted that at the ceremony in Natanze there were no representatives of the countries - members of the European Union, which Brussels recommended to ignore the celebrations. Negotiations between the EU and Iran are still interrupted, although yesterday the secretary of the Higher Council of National Security of Iran Ali Laridzhani again confirmed the readiness to "begin real negotiations with the West", however, without stopping the scientific development of the country. In other words, Iran still does not intend to refuse to enrich Uranus, the newspaper "News Time" writes.

The US State Department commented on the loud statement rather sparingly. Its official representative Sean McCormak recalled that neither the UN Security Council nor the IAEA "do not believe in the peaceful nature of Iran’s atomic program."

However, there are doubts about the veracity of the statement of the Iranian leadership about 3000 centrifuges established and ready to work. According to the IAEA, no more than a thousand centrifuges are installed in Natanze and not everyone is ready to work. International inspectors who monitor the nuclear activity of the Iranians argue that the Iranian specialists managed to add four more cascades to two cascades of 164 centrifuges in February, as a result of which the total number of centrifuges reached 984. Meanwhile, the Magate still cannot achieve permission to place observation chambers in the underground premises of the object in Natansa, writes, writes. "Independent newspaper" .
