Russia obviously likes to mess with the political instability of the region. They build plants in Iran. Now they may be doing the same with Syria? Do they not see the mess Iran is in with all these calls for sanctions?
There is no mess it's all rhetoric. These sanctions are based on nothing. Russia is doing what we should be doing. We're obligated to build the plants by law and assist countries wanting peaceful nuclear power to obtain it, while stopping the proliferation of nuclear weapons.
If we'd gone in and given the Iranians a plant like we're doing with the Saudi's it wouldn't be an issue. We can hardly point fingers at Russia for doing something wrong when we're the ones that are in the wrong and Russia is doing what is right.
Everyone has a right to access clean safe nuclear power for civilian use. But they don't have the right to spread nuclear weapons.
