Iran's newest useful idiot

Russia is helping Iran build a nuclear reactor at Bushwehr. Russia's semi-benign dictator, Vladimir Putin, said this to the Iranian nuclear negotiator:
"The latest steps by Iran convince Russia that Iran indeed does not intend to produce nuclear weapons and we will continue to develop relations in all sectors, including peaceful atomic energy."

Were those the steps where Iran has said it will develop nuclear weapons and withdraw from the non-proliferation treaty if the US keeps telling it NOT to develop nuclear weapons and withdraw from the NPT? Or were those the steps where Iran made a missile that can reach Tel Aviv and parts of Eastern Europe? Putin must be drinking the same Kool-Aid that Jimmy Carter's been slurping for the past 30 years.

HT: CQ.
