Russia's FM criticizes Iran for its nuclear and missile programs

By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
Russia's foreign minister said Wednesday that Moscow disapproves of Iran's uranium enrichment efforts and its missile program. "We don't approve of Iran's continuously demonstrating its intentions to develop its missile industry and continue uranium enrichment," Sergey Lavrov told Russian news wires on his way back from Slovenia. "From the point of view of international law, these activities aren't forbidden. However, it's necessary to take into account that the past years have shown a number of problems related to Iran's nuclear program."
