Iran, Russia, Saudi, and China
A collection of little significant articles on the other "great powers" relations with the middle east.
Iran and Russia announced yesterday that they had reached a deal on enriching uranium for Iranian plants in Russia.
Perhaps, not surprisingly, the Russians then came out and issued a warning against threatening Iran with military action or sanctions. During Hu's visit to Washington, he was also very cool to the idea of any real actions against Iran.
In the same general area, Chinese President Hu made a stop in Saudi on his way back home, that sounds like it went far better than his day with George, signing another major energy deal.

I know the GOP line. That's "different".

They're on again? They've been on again, off again pursuing nuclear technology since the eighties.
Good article. I'm going to save it as a parallel when the rhetoric heats up again.
Thanks.
