Nuclear: Iran’s Point of No Return

Oct 31st, 2013

From: Iran Media Focus, 31 October 2013
A new report by ISISshows that Iran isn’t idle while sitting at the negotiating table. On the contrary, it continues to expand the number of IR-1 centrifuges installed at both its Fordow and Natanz plants, and had also begun to install more advanced IR-2m centrifuges at Natanz.
Meanwhile, former International Atomic Energy Agency official Olli Heinonen suggests that Iran had passed the “point of no return” in its nuclear program, having installed centrifuges meant to enrich uranium to a percentage even higher than 20%. Heinonen estimates that Tehran could soon radically reduce its so-called “breakout time.”
