Iran Deny's Delaying Payments For Nuclear Reactor

   Due to earlier commitments, there will be no posting at this site until 6 PM this evening, ( EST ).

   I leave you with this concerning an earlier post about Iran not making nuclear power plant construction payments.

   Iran is denying that the payments aren't being made and has said that things will go on as planned.

AP   Iran broke the schedule of payments this year under the $1 billion contract, said a Russian official, who asked not be named because he was not authorized to speak to the media. He said the Iranians blamed the delay on the need to switch payments from dollars to euros.

But Mohammad Saeedi, the deputy head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, denied that Iran had been late in making payments.

"Iran has had no delay whatsoever in making payments for the Bushehr nuclear power plant to the Russian ... company," Saeedi was quoted as saying by the news agency, IRNA.

   We'll see what happens, will we not?
