Iran’s president Mahmoud Ahmady Nejad gave his orders to his country’s nuclear experts to start domestic production of 20-percent high-grade nuclear fuel.
Ahmadi Nejad did not mentioned a specific date for starting of the process although some source believe that this decision is a clear message to the west that Iran is indeed capable of producing its own high-grade nuclear fuel.
“Nothing surprising” an expert told Morocco Post “Ahmady Nejad had the attention to do so since last month, his order today came to complete a well studied plan to put more pressure on the west”
Iranian officials have repeatedly insisted their nuclear program is for peaceful, civilian purposes, but the West suspects Tehran is working to produce atomic weapons.
Secretary of State Hilary Clinton recently warned Tehran the international community will “not back down” in the face of its defiant refusal to accept the IAEA draft nuclear deal. Western powers are discussing possible new economic sanctions on Tehran.
