Russia may support sanctions against Iran?
The Russian web site RIA Novosti reports that Russia will support new sanctions against Iran "if there is a consensus" on imposing them. "If there is a consensus on sanctions, Russia will not remain in isolation," the source said, commenting on Tehran's plans to build 10 new uranium enrichment facilities.
The diplomatic source said, however, that in line with Russia's position on the issue outlined by President Dmitry Medvedev, Russia would prefer Iranian "open and consistent cooperation" with the UN nuclear watchdog to allay concerns that Tehran was looking to build nuclear weapons.
"That is why we will not add any additional complications to the negotiations with threats of sanctions ... but we are obliged to bear in mind this possibility," the diplomatic source said.
But actions speak louder than words, and given that Russia is in negotiations to sell refined oil products to Iran, the 'diplomatic source' quoted above doesn't have a whole lot of credibility.
