Iran Hiding Its Nuclear Activities, Report Says
(Los Angeles Times) - Senior Iranian officials are overseeing efforts to conceal key elements of the country's nuclear program from international inspectors, according to Western diplomats and an intelligence report. According to the report prepared by a Western country, Iran set up a committee late last year to coordinate the concealment efforts. Analyzing the report, a Western diplomat wrote: "The [Iranian] committee is making a thorough and systematic examination of all uranium conversion facilities, centrifuge component manufacturing plants and other secret installations to locate poor concealment. It will then order improved concealment measures with a view to making them hermetic before inspections resume."
