(IsraelNN.com) United Nations officials are investigating recent intelligence reports that officials from Iran's Defense Ministry have held a series of meetings with companies based in Taiwan to buy hundreds of pressure transducers, which can be used to produce weapons-grade uranium, according to a Thursday report in the London Daily Telegraph.
Western intelligence officials say the transducers were originally manufactured in Europe and then sold to a company in Taiwan. UN officials are now investigating whether the European companies are undertaking proper checks of end-user certificates for their equipment. A UN source said, "Pressure needs to be applied to the companies involved to stop doing business with Tehran while it is still refusing to co-operate with the UN."
