Iran using fraud to evade UN sanctions

Washington Times:

Iran is using newly created front companies in a bid to frustrate U.S. and United Nations sanctions on its suspect nuclear programs, according to records and information supplied by a leading Iranian exile dissident group.
In two cases, Iranian authorities have simply changed the name and headquarters mailing address for companies recently targeted for sanctions by the U.S. Treasury and the U.N. Security Council. Both firms -- the Pars Tarash Co. and the Farayand Technique Co. -- are involved in the testing, production and storage of centrifuges needed to enrich uranium, a critical technical hurdle in the production of nuclear weapons.
The charges about the use of the new front companies were made by the Paris-based National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), which supports the overthrow of the regime in Tehran.
Council press spokesman Shahin Gobadi said the charges showed the futility of negotiations and compromise to get Iran to give up its nuclear ambitions.
"The mullahs will never give up on their quest to obtain a nuclear bomb," he said, calling for "comprehensive technological, weapons, diplomatic and oil sanctions" on Tehran.
...
This is just another demonstration of Iranian bad faith and perfidiousness. No one should expect any result in negotiations with Iran other than putting forward the evil day when we must do something through the sue of force. We are merely jumping through hoops for liberals while Iran continues on it s quest to destroy us and anyone who does not submit to the weird religious beliefs of the Ayatollahs.
