Iran's First Nuclear Plant

The article I found discussed the current situation in iran regarding their first nuclear power plant.  It talked about the money it would save the country and their plans for expansion.  The main goal of building the power plant was to create a peaceful way to reduce consumption of fossil fuels, but this construction may raise issues with the rest of the world.  Even though the people in charge of the power plant may have good intentions, some people may not.  And with an unstable government and minimal police control, the possibilities of materials falling into the wrong hands is very possible.  In order to better understand the situation, I would need more information regarding the safety precautions being taken to ensure a secure workplace.  Hopefully everything goes well, but its against the world's better judgement to give this country any access to nuclear power.
