Iranian uranium enrichment could speed nuclear warheads

Iranian uranium enrichment

Iran is poised to really expand uranium enrichment at a fortified underground bunker to a point that would boost how quickly it could make nuclear warheads, diplomats tell The Associated Press.They said Tehran has put finishing touches for the installation of thousands of new-generation centrifuges at the cavernous capacity machines that can produce enriched uranium much more quickly and capably than its present machines.

While saying that the electrical circuitry, piping and behind equipment for the new centrifuges was now in place, the diplomats emphasized that Tehran had not started installing the new machines at its Fordo facility and cannot say whether it was planning to.Still, the senior diplomats who asked for anonymity since their information was privileged suggested that Tehran would have little reason to prepare the ground for the better centrifuges unless it planned to operate them. They spoke in current interviews the last one Saturday.

The reported work at Fordo appeared to reflect Iran’s determination to forge ahead with nuclear activity that could be used to create atomic arms despite rapidly escalating international sanctions and the covert threat of an Israeli military strike on its nuclear facilities.
