While world issues were center stage this week in the United States, with leaders gathering in New York and Pittsburgh for two important meetings to discuss a host of global problems, it’s likely the only thing anyone will remember is the announcement that came Friday morning: that Iran has a second, secret nuclear facility under development.
Speaking in Pittsburgh where they were attending the Group of Twenty (G-20) Meeting, President Obama, England’s Gordon Brown and France’s Nicolas Sarkozy accused Iran of hiding a secret uranium enrichment facility from inspectors and demanded that they allow inspectors in to see the plant.
The news conference came days after Iran revealed to the International Atomic Energy Agency, which monitors nuclear activity for the world, that it has a second pilot plant under construction.
