Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

S E C R E T PRAGUE 000163 SIPDIS STATE FOR EUR/NCE, IO, NP; UNVIE FOR HILLIARD E.O. 12958: DECL: 02/04/2015 TAGS: KNNP, PARM, PREL, MNUC, EZ, IR SUBJECT: (S) NIAG 4225: POSSIBLE IRANIAN PROCUREMENT OF URANIUM ORE IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC REF: SECSTATE 11652 Classified By: Deputy Political Counselor Mark Canning for reasons 1.4 B and D 1. (S) In response to demarche in Reftel A, presented to the MFA on January 20, the Czech government assembled representatives from the MFA, the Office for Nuclear Security (SUJB), the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and the intelligence branch (BIS). None of the representatives could find any evidence to support the suspicions contained in the demarche that Iran's nuclear program was trying to acquire many metric tons of yellowcake from the Czech firm Geoidustria. The SUJB representative, Vaclav Bartak, even went further and excluded the possibility of such a transaction. He stressed that the nation's entire store of uranium is kept under extremely strict control. BIS also expressed the opinion that it would be hard for such a transaction to take place without them hearing anything about it. CABANISS
