WASHINGTON -- The administration of U.S. President George W. Bush hopes to send a pact on civilian nuclear cooperation with Russia to the U.S. Congress in the next month, but a congressional aide said there would be strong resistance to the deal. Concerns over Iran, which Washington accuses of trying to build an atomic bomb, could scuttle administration hopes that the deal would take effect by the time Bush leaves office in January.
