Reuters - Russia alarmed by CIA view of Iran's weapons
Reuters reports: "Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Sunday he was alarmed by U.S. assertions that Iran may have enough fuel for two nuclear weapons and warned that if confirmed the Islamic Republic may face new measures."
My Way News - Russian FM: CIA assessment on Iran not new
My Way News reports: "Russia's foreign minister is expressing little concern over U.S. claims that Iran has enough uranium to make two nuclear bombs within two years, saying the information is not new. Speaking in Israel on Tuesday, Sergey Lavrov responded to a new CIA assessment that Iran could produce the bombs by further enriching uranium it already has."
Comment: Russia is alarmed, but the foreign minister is not concerned. Ok, which is it? Does Medvedev have so little clout that his minister can undermine his position in public? Perhaps Putin really is still in charge.
