Russia ‘Concerned’ About Security of Pakistan’s Nuclear Arsenal

For once I agree with Russia. Bloomberg

March 25 (Bloomberg) -- Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Ivanov said Russia is “very much concerned” about the security of Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal, and the country must be stabilized before peace can be achieved in neighboring Afghanistan.

“It’s obvious to anybody that the Pakistani-Afghan border is a safe haven for terrorists, for the Taliban,” Ivanov said in a Bloomberg Television interview in his Moscow office yesterday. “They hit and run back to Pakistan. So you have to deal with both. Both are very unstable.”

Ivanov said Russia seeks to toughen ineffective nuclear controls in cooperation with the U.S. “We obviously see that the present system of missile nonproliferation doesn’t work,” he said. “More and more countries are laying their hands on very dangerous missile technologies.”
So why the hell are you helping the Mullahcracy develop nuclear technology? Are you that desperate for cash?
