Russia is not a reliable partner, they are short sighted and play political games for short term gains, they have negated on arms deal they have dragged their hills on the nuclear power plant and now this, Iran and the west are slowly moving towards some kind of normalization of relationship and russia has to remember that the Iranian people have a very long memory and will repay their integrety in kind.

Will they launch a satellite and under-utilize it as Venezuela?

A satellite has ~15 years of life. Venezuela's satellite has been in service for 1 year.
Venezuela is using it to broadcast 4 TV channels that are available on other satellites.
They claim to be offering internet service, but I haven't met anyone that has an operational site.
Just another of Chavez' financial blunders, will Iran learn from their friend Hugito?

Daily Horoscope for December 24

Leo

Perhaps it's the fact that it's Christmas Eve and everyone is busy, but you can't help feeling that you're walking on eggshells around certain people. Their emotions are very close to the surface and could erupt at a moment's notice, perhaps in a storm of tears or a fit of pique. Calm them down and ask if you can do anything to help.
