Ankara ready to store Iran's enriched uranium
Turkey is ready to take part in implementation of International Atomic Energy Agency's plan aimed at storing Iran's enriched uranium on its territory, said Turkish Energy Minister Taner Yildiz.

"MAGATE wants us to be involved in the process, and if asked we would not say no. Under MAGATE's plan, low-enriched Iranian uranium will be stored in Turkey and then be shipped to France fuel bar production. Reprocessed uranium will then be sent back to Iran for being used for peaceful purposes, Radio Free reports.
