Report: Russian Fuel Going to Iran Plant

Russia will ship fuel to a controversial atomic power plant it is building in Iran by March under a deal signed Tuesday, news agencies reported, as Tehran’s nuclear chief met with a Russian security officer at the Kremlin.

The agreement signed by Sergei Shmatko, head of the state-run company Atomstroiexport, and Mahmoud Hanatian, vice president of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization, should allay Iran’s complaints that Moscow is dragging its feet on supplying fuel for the Bushehr plant.
