Expert says Iran nuke move may be 'bluff'
Article Abstract:
Owen Cote, associate director at the Massachusetts Institute of Technologies studies program, says that Iran's action in the recent past with respect to its nuclear program, raising alarms that the nation again is working toward the acquisition of nuclear weapons, may have been more a posturing move than an immediate threat. He added that the latest Iranian step, entailing the early-stage processing of uranium, seemed like the kind of back-and-forth that's associated with the negotiations between Iran and the European powers over its nuclear program.

N. Korea nuke issue maybe at impasse-expert
Article Abstract:
Kirk Larsen, Korea Foundation assistant professor of history and international affairs at George Washington University, said that the international talks regarding North Korea's nuclear program may yield clues about the diplomatic aspirations both of North Korea and China. He added that that the talk themselves did not appear to be helping the US move very quickly toward its goal of shutting down North Korea's nuclear program.
