Iran has accumulated enough high-purity uranium to create three atomic bombs by IAEA definition.

IAEA Director-General Rafael Grossi warned last month in a statement, “One thing is true: They have amassed enough nuclear material for several nuclear weapons, not one, at this point.”

The nuclear watchdog agency discovered the change during an unannounced inspection on Jan. 21 at Fordow, an underground facility dug into a mountain.

"There is the possibility of nuclear activities and material that are not under international supervision and about which we know not the origin or the intent."

Rouhani: "“We are enriching more uranium than before the deal was reached."

“Iran’s expansion of proliferation-sensitive activities raises concerns that Iran is positioning itself to have the option of a rapid nuclear breakout.”

“Iran continues to hide its nuclear program and continues to renew uranium enrichment for the purpose of producing nuclear weapons.”

The JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) nuclear deal signed by Iran with world powers in 2015 bans nuclear material from Fordow.

Iran’s enrichment of uranium to the 5 percent level will reduce its breakout time to a nuclear weapon by approximately two months.

European leaders: "We urge Iran to reverse this step and to refrain from further measures that undermine the nuclear deal."

“Iran has increased uranium enrichment and will pass the 300-kg ceiling specified under the nuclear deal on June 27."

The move follows recent provocations in the region against Saudi Arabia, the UAE and United States as yet unconfirmed as coming from Iran.

The Iranian people “will not yield in to the U.S.” and must stand together in order to “bring the U.S. to its knees, President Hassan Rouhani said.

The intel proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that the entire agreement was based on a lie, and continues on the same premise.

An Israeli strike could theoretically damage Iran’s nuclear program; only US can terminate program

Iran says it won't make a deal with world powers over its nuclear development program by the Nov. 24 deadline.

We would be fools to take seriously assurances from Joe Biden.

Iran claims it shot down an Israeli drone on Sunday that it said was heading for the Natanz nuclear enrichment plant.

Perhaps Obama and Kerry are finally learning that any agreement made with the Arab world simply is a basis for an argument. But don’t bet on it.

Iranian President Hassan Rohani Sunday unknowingly backed up a U.S. Congresswoman’s claim that he is full of deceit when he stated that the West...

Russia is now Iran’s spokesman. It says Iran is ready to stop enriching 20 % uranium. The West, of course, must respond by lifting sanctions, while Rohani says Iran won’t all halt all enrichment.

Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili stated that the demands and the sanctions "are a sign of enmity towards the people of Iran."
