Iran Proposes to Limit Enriched Uranium Production Amidst Regional Tensions
Iran has offered to restrict its production of highly enriched uranium, which can be used for nuclear weapons, according to a leaked report from the IAEA. The country has been increasing its stockpile of uranium with nearly 60% purity, approaching the threshold for weapons-grade material. IAEA Director Rafael Grossi mentioned that Iran made preparations to prevent further increases in its stockpile following his recent visit to Tehran. This move appears to be a response to escalating tensions with Israel and a call for the easing of Western sanctions.
