Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif said this morning that his country has breached the 2015 nuclear deal’s limits on enriched uranium, which limited Iran's uranium stockpile to 300 kilograms or less.
This, of course, comes only after President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the nuclear deal with Iran and the building up of US military forces around Iran.

It should be noted that -- at least for the time being -- this Uranium is only enriched to medical-grade (20%), not weapons-grade (90%). Supposedly, it a much quicker process to go from 20% to 90% than to get to 20%, but for now, it's 20%.
ReplyDeleteI would wager large that no one is remotely hinting and enrichment percentage in the media!
DeleteIf I were the ruler of Iran and I was being threatened on all quarters by belligerent adversaries - the US, Israel and Saudi Arabia - I'd be moving full speed ahead to develop nuclear weapons, but that's just me.
