| Ukrainian Border Guards Stop Man With Uranium |
| 2004-02-24 |
| Ukrainian border guards stopped a man trying to take nearly a pound of uranium into Hungary on Tuesday, an official said. Border guards arrested the driver of a passenger van at the Tisa checkpoint after finding a container containing the potential nuclear bomb fuel, said border guards’ spokesman Yevheniy Bargman. It was unclear whether the uranium was in natural ore form or had been enriched for potential use in reactors or weapons. So you don’t really know what he had, do you? Bargman said the man told officials he was paid an unspecified sum of money by men at a nearby gas station to take the material to Hungary for use "by a dentist’s office." The Mother of All X-Ray machines? Officials will send the material to Kiev, the capital, for analysis. Good idea. It was unclear where the uranium originated. |
