Nuke Stuff Stolen

Robert Siegel speaks with Carrie Scott, the Moscow correpondent for the British Weekly "The Sunday Times," about official Russian documents obtained by the Times that indicate a large amount radioactive material is missing from a nuclear waste storage site in the wartorn republic of Chechnya. The Sunday Times story, published this week, says that government officials in Moscow are aware that quanitities of plutonium-239, uranium-235, cesium-137 and strontium-90 are unaccounted for. Scott says there is strong suspicion in Russia that the material was removed by Russian soldiers stationed in Chechnya.
