Switzerland: Mohamed ElBaradei Wants U.S. to Give Nuclear Reactors to Iran
Because, as we all know, giving nuclear reactors to North Koread worked so well in convincing them to give up their nuke program: US should provide Iran with reactors: Elbaradei
UN nuclear chief Mohamed ElBaradei has called on the United States to provide Iran with nuclear reactors, and urged Tehran to declare a moratorium on enriching uranium for at least eight years.He said eight or nine years would enable the country to earn the confidence of the international community that it was really interested in nuclear energy - not nuclear weapons.
The Iranians argue that they need to develop an enrichment capability because they cannot be assured of a guaranteed supply of fuel for a peaceful nuclear energy programme, ElBaradei said at a panel at the World Economic Forum on Friday.
"I would separate the issues of using nuclear technology for energy and to produce weapons," he said.[...]
There is no diplomatic solution to the Iran nuclear crisis. There has never been a diplomatic solution to the Iran nuclear crisis. The United States should stop dreaming, and get on with it.
