Report: Russian Banks Delaying Iranian Nuclear Reactor

[AP] Dan Belenky, the head of Atomstroiexport, the Russian company building Iran's first nuclear power plant, said Wednesday that it is unclear when the reactor will be switched on, Russian news agencies reported. The refusal of some Russian banks to work with Iran has slowed the project by complicating financing, he said. Sluggish supplies of equipment from other countries were also a problem.
