Fmr. Obama Energy Secy.: ‘Certain Irony’ in Russia Talking About Not Bombing Nuclear Power Plants Which They Did in Ukraine

RUSH EXCERPT:

MONIZ: “Well, there are various radiation risks involved in a combat zone, but clearly the bushehr reactor in Iran is the only place where you have irradiated fuel, which was, of course, the source of the chernobyl disaster. Now, I have to say, there‘s a certain irony in Russia saying that given that they are the ones who have for the first time landed weapons on a nuclear power plant, namely in Ukraine, and we‘ve been very concerned, as has the international agency in terms of the sanctity, if you like, of highly radiological sources in combat zones. So clearly, we have to avoid a bushehr strike. So far. Certainly Israel has respected that.”
