Russia to Begin Activating Iran's First Nuclear Power Plant
(Los Angeles Times) Jeffrey Fleishman - Russia announced Friday that it will begin loading fuel into Iran's first nuclear power plant on Aug. 21, but that the power station may not be fully active for months. Russia has provided the 1,000-megawatt plant with low-enriched uranium, which has been sealed and monitored by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Iran is also required to return fuel and plutonium generated at Bushehr to Russia for reprocessing.
