Iran: Only Some External Pipelines of Arak Reactor Were Filled with Cement, Its Core Was Not
(MEMRI) A. Savyon and U. Kafash - Ali Akbar Salehi, head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, told IRINN TV on Aug. 22: "Certain people said that our nuclear industry has been paralyzed, and that it has been shut down....[They] claimed that we had poured cement into the core of the Arak reactor....We [actually] poured cement only into some of the reactor's pipelines, several centimeters in diameter and two to three meters long, not into the reactor itself but into the external pipes. If we are instructed to restore the former reactor...we will remove the front and back parts of these pipes and put in new pipes, which will take only several months."
