Azerbaijan doing their part to stop nuclear proliferation

Azerbaijan blocks Russian nuke shipment to Iran

Kind of like watching an interception by your favorite team’s defense against your most hated division rival.

NICOSIA — Iran has reported that a shipment of Russian nuclear equipment was being held in neighboring Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijan, an ally of the United States, has acknowledged the delay. The Azeri government said it has sought to determine whether the nuclear shipment violated United Nations Security Council sanctions on Iran.

At least SOMEONE gives a crap about obeying and enforcing UN Sanctions on Iran. But that doesn’t stop them from crying about it.

Iranian officials said their Foreign Ministry has demanded that Azeri authorities release the nuclear equipment, Middle East Newsline reported. They said the equipment, intended for the Bushehr nuclear energy reactor, was held up at the Iranian-Azeri border.
