(Worthy News) – Iran announced a day before the one-year anniversary of Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani’s death that it is planning to enrich uranium to 20% in an apparent violation of the nuclear deal.
Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of the civilian Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, sent a letter to the International Atomic Energy Agency saying that his country intends to increase its enrichment, a move that will likely further escalate tensions with the United States.
“Iran has informed the agency that in order to comply with a legal act recently passed by the country’s parliament, the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran intends to produce low-enriched uranium (LEU) up to 20 percent at the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant. Iran’s letter to the agency, dated [Dec. 31, 2020] did not say when this enrichment activity would take place,” the International Atomic Energy Agency told the Hill.
