Iran 's first nuclear power station at Bushehr will be operating by August, Interfax reported Thursday citing the head of Russia 's Federal Atomic Energy Agency.

Sergei Kirienko said the United Nations' proposed sanctions against
Iran 's nuclear program won't "hamper these plans, and we expect the station to be launched by August, if everything goes according to the plan."

Russia has been helping Iran build the plant, a decision that has been criticized by the U.S. , coming at a time when it is leading efforts to bring transparency to Iran 's nuclear activities.

Kirienko also said that
