Nuclear Pyongyang is helping Iran

safavi_veinna_nulcear_300Le Figaro.fr - some North Korean experts are involved in developing nuclear missiles by the Iranian regime on a site that was previously not identified, said today in Vienna the group of exiled opposition National Council of Resistance Iran (NCRI).

"The number of North Korean experts visiting Iran for a few days or a few months to help develop nuclear warheads can be counted in tens," said Ali Safavi, a spokesman for the organization.

According to him, these experts intervene "for at least two years" on a secret military site in the Hemmat Khojar region, south-east of Tehran, where according to the NCRI seven companies are involved in the adaptation of ballistic missile medium-range Shahab-3 With nuclear warheads.

The NCRI said that based on sources "within the regime" presented satellite photos of the alleged site to the press, while the Board of Governors of the 'International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) met this week in the Austrian capital, Vienna.

"We handed these documents to the IAEA. We now put the challenge to inspect the site," said Safavi.

The UN agency, which seeks to establish whether Iran's nuclear program is strictly civilian, cannot however conduct an on-site inspection.

On September 22, the IAEA presented its members with documents and pictures suggesting that Iran had tried to modify the warhead of the Shahab-3 to accommodate a load.
