Iran is ready to test a nuclear power plant (S.S.)

Iran's first nuclear power plant will undergo testing in front of Russian and Iranian officials. During the testing, they plan to use "dummy" fuel rods without enriched uranium and are planing to test all the plant's systems. ISNA quoted Khazaneh, a former adviser to the IAEO(Iran's Atomic Energy Organization) saying,"then the next tests, with fuel rods containing enriched uranium, will take place near the end of 2009". Numerous countries, including the United States, are concerned that Iran are going to use the nuclear power plant to make nuclear weapons but, Iran says its for peaceful purpose's. On top of that, countries are primarily concerned because Iran has enough uranium to create a nuclear bomb. All in all, Iran wants to use the nuclear power plant for peace and not to make a nuclear bomb.
