UN Watchdog: Iran Has Accelerated Its Enrichment Of Uranium



Daily Mail: Iran has accelerated its enrichment of uranium putting it on track to breach the nuclear deal, UN watchdog says

* Yukiya Amano says Tehran has accelerated production of fuel-grade uranium
* Move does not automatically put Iran in breach of nuclear pact, but sets it on track to breach stockpile limits set under the deal
* Iran set July 7 deadline to breach deal unless it receives benefits it was promised
* German foreign minister visited Tehran this week in attempt to salvage the pact

Iran has followed through on a threat to accelerate its production of enriched uranium, the head of the U.N. atomic watchdog said on Monday.

International Atomic Energy Agency chief Yukiya Amano also issued a rare warning to world leaders, saying he was worried about increasing tensions in the Middle East.

Iran had threatened to quadruple its production of enriched uranium after America stepped up sanctions and moved troops to the region after tearing up the nuclear pact signed under the Obama administration.

Wait a minute, I'm confused, why would Iran have to enrich Uranium? I thought our former Kenyan-born president already gave Iran all the nuclear bombs?

You thought. Never. stay with childish name calling.
Obama, born not in Kenya, and not a Muslim, had an agreement with l5 nations and with Iran. Trump broke that agreement. That gave Iran the go ahead to work on nukes. Now we do not know what Iran would have done had the agreement been kept. But we do know there was NO reason for them not to go ahead since the agreement was discarded.
thus, anon, try again and try being adult while at it

Yeah but it was a poorly worded and constructed deal, cmon ... Military bases off limits for inspection That deal needed to be modified.

the agreement might have been violated but in that case, we would clearly be right to take strong action against Iran. Pull out of the deal, and we gave Iran the go-ahead, the right to develop since no longer an agreement. We had all to gain. Now we have nothing.
