IAEA: Iran Proceeds

Filed under: Iran Watch by Chad at 3:21 pm CDT

According to an IAEA report, Iran has not only ignored IAEA requests but the nation has also expanded its nuclear program.

“Iran has not suspended its enrichment-related activities. Iran has continued with the operation of their pilot fuel enrichment plant and with construction of their (planned industrial underground) enrichment plant,” the U.N. nuclear watchdog said in its report.

“It has started feeding cascades with UF6 (uranium gas). Iran has also continued with its heavy water-related projects.”

But it said the amount of uranium gas fed into the cascade was far below the 80-90 percent suitable to detonate an atom bomb.

Of course Iran hasn’t complied.  The nation has no intent to do so.  It’s time the IAEA and the UN Security Council realizes that and proceeds how they see fit.

Digg It!
