Steinitz says deal would leave Iran ‘weeks away’ from producing fissile material
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on Google“Reports of a deal that will allow Iran to operate 6,500 centrifuges immediately and within several years to improve uranium enrichment facilities are worrying,” says Intelligence Affairs Minister Yuval Steinitz.
“Such a deal would make Iran a nuclear threshold state, one year away from fissile material according to this interim deal and within reach of fissile material in only a few weeks within 10-12 years, sufficient for the production of several dozen nuclear weapons. We hope the powers that be in the P5+1 will prefer not to sign such an agreement,” Steinitz says.
