Putin: Russia Opposes "Excessive" Iran Sanctions, Bushehr Nuclear Plant to Open Soon
(ITAR-TASS-Russia) Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said Tuesday that a future UN Security Council resolution on the Iranian nuclear problem must not block the way for Iran's civilian nuclear program. "We have worked a great deal and we believe that the resolution has been practically agreed on," Putin said. "We maintain that the forthcoming decisions must not be excessive ones. Nor must they put the Iranian people in a dubious position, make them faced with obstructions on the way towards civilian nuclear power. In that connection I would like to tell you that the Bushehr nuclear power plant will be officially inaugurated in August and the work will begin."
