Medvedev's remark hit home for his fellow hockey buff and adversary--the forward who had tripped him up so uncouthly, also known as the President of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko.

The IISS study asserts that the UAE is a "common destination for illicit items and eventually the hub of the Khan network." It adds that Iran is one of the top recipients of non-oil exports from the Emirates, and predicts that "the UAE's relatively lax export controls will no doubt prove tempting to Iran if the international community continues to target its nuclear-related imports...
