Russia says no to the Iran sanctions!

Russia not agreeing with the United states is not surprising and if they had agreed with them, then that would have made some eyebrows rise. Anyway Russia has made its position known publicly and Russia can count on both China and India to oppose the Iran sanctions. As things stand, the current economic sanctions on Iran and its banks do not need the other countries to support the enforcement of these sanctions. These are 'stand alone' sanctions, that is they are sanctions passed on by one country against another one and as such it is puzzling as to what Russia hopes to accomplish by going against these sanctions publicly.

Iran hardens its stance in the Nuclear issue!

Iran has hardened its stance in the Nuclear issue with having appointed a hardliner as the new chief nuclear negotiator. The president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accepted the resignation of the last nuclear negotiator and has appointed a hardliner in his place. Things may start to get a bit sticky as the Untied states increases pressure on Iran by way of more sanctions. At the moment, Russia who has invested a lot in Iran is currently objecting to any further sanctions on Iran. But this will change as soon as Russia sees that Iran is not serious of backing off the 'Nuclear quest' and that all this talk has been more of a way of buying time than accomplishing anything concrete. Things are going to come to a boil sooner or later regarding Iran. Bush has certainly not helped matters along by linking a Nuclear Iran with World war 3!
