Iran is technically capable of producing a nuclear bomb, ”but has not yet decided whether it would create it, said Kamal Harrazi, adviser to the supreme leader of the country Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, reports Reuters.
“In a few days we were able to enrich uranium up to 60%, and we can easily produce uranium with enrichment of up to 90%… Iran has technical means for the production of a nuclear bomb, but Iran did not make a decision to create it,” Harrazi said said In an interview with Al Jazeera.
In 2018, the United States refused a nuclear deal with Iran. Under the terms of the transaction, Iran was obliged to stop working on the enrichment of uranium in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions. After some time, as Reuters notes, Iran began to “violate nuclear restrictions”.
