The country will increase its level of uranium enrichment after July 7 beyond the 3.67 per cent cap set in the landmark 2015 nuclear deal, President Hassan Rouhani said today.

ReplyDeleteSecondly, Anonymous doesn't know what he's talking about. The JCPOA included measures to demilitarize Iran's nuclear facilities, activities which were actually proceeding until US sanctions shut them down.
With no inspection of military facilities, and nothing to stop a breakout down the track, anonymous is right.
