Hi everyone. I’d like to write about history of Irans’ nuclear program. Iran's nuclear program began in the 1960s with the establishment of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) by the late Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. The Shah, who referred to oil as 'noble fuel,' wanted to store Iran's oil for export. So, with the help of the United States and West Germany, Iran planned to construct nuclear power stations across the country. After the Islamic Revolution, however, it ceased construction on these stations. In 1995, Iran signed a contract with Russia to resume work on several nuclear power stations, namely the Bushehr nuclear power station in Southwest Iran. Since then Iran's nuclear program has come under the scrutiny of the United States and other nations that assert that Iran's ultimate goal is to develop nuclear weapons. The United States argues that Iran's vast oil and natural gas reserves exceed its energy requirements. Since Iran does not need nuclear energy, its ultimate goal must be the development of nuclear weapons. Iran's nuclear program has made the United States and Israel very nervous. Politicians in both these countries argue that Iran must be stopped, preferably by diplomatic means but by force if necessary. In addition, Ale-Baradi, Chief of IAEA in the last his interview said that “We don’t have proof so far that they (Iran) have done any weaponization nor have enriched uranium to the military level, but, if you ask me whether they have the know to developed the highly enriched uranium, the answer is yes”. On the other hand USA says that they have evidence that Iran stopped its process of enrichment uranium three yeas ago. It seems a interesting story for powerful countries to sell their weapons and technology to countries in middle east region.
I like to know your opinion about this international problem and also to know why USA and Germany firstly wanted to build that for Iran, but now?
Thank you.
