Iranians flew to Russia on diplomatic passports, the delegation was 43-year-old nuclear scientist Ali Calwand and four more employees. One of the team members was a atomic who works in a secret organization of defense innovations and research under the control of the Ministry of Defense of Iran. According to Western officials, another member of the Amir Yazdyan delegation was an employee of Iran's military counterintelligence.
Experts say that the most important delegate could be a specialist in neutron generators, atomic Sorush Mohtashami, who works at the Iranian technological University of Amirkabir. Calwand since May last year was interested in obtaining radioactive isotopes in Russia-Tritium, Strontium-90 and Nickel-63. All these elements enhance the power of the explosion of nuclear warheads. The export of each isotope is strictly controlled.
It is noteworthy that Calvand is fluent in Russian and has a diploma of nuclear physics of the Kiev Polytechnic Institute. He was invited to the Russian Federation by 78-year-old Russian scientist Oleg Maslenikov. Iranian experts were interested in high -power x -ray tubes for nuclear testing and electron accelerators. We will remind, Iran recognized "great and serious" damage from bombing of nuclear objects by US troops.
