At the same time, Tehran continues to obstruct the IAEA's activities on key issues.
Iran has enough uranium enriched to 60% weapons-grade purity for three atomic bombs, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency.
The IAEA reports this, Reuters reports.
“Iran is constantly increasing its level of uranium enrichment, but is unable to provide the International Atomic Energy Agency with the necessary information, creating a challenge both for the agency and for Western states, which have repeatedly called on Iran to change course,” the source said.
Experts noted that Iran has enough uranium enriched to 60% purity to create three nuclear bombs.
“This is more than three times the approximately 42 kg that the IAEA has determined is theoretically sufficient to create a nuclear bomb with further enrichment,” writes Reuters.
The head of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, sent a letter to Iran asking to reconsider this issue. In response, Iran noted that it was “exploring the possibility of satisfying the request.”
According to the former head of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, Iran is capable of developing nuclear weapons within a few months, but the United States will not allow it to do this.
Let us recall that on February 19, 2023, on February 19, the IAEA announced that it was discussing with Iran the results of the agency’s verification activities and would inform its board of directors if necessary. Even then, Iran announced its technical readiness to produce a nuclear bomb.
