Clock ticking on fusion decision

Europe has made it clear it will not wait beyond June to reach international agreement on where to site Iter, the experimental nuclear fusion reactor. The six international partners - the EU, Russia, China, the US, Japan and South Korea - are deadlocked on a location decision. Two candidate sites are under consideration for its construction: Cadarache in Europe and Rokkasho-mura in Japan.
