How long before Israel is forced to take military action against Iran’s nuclear facilities? Not very long at this rate. The Biden Administration has no intention of stopping Iran’s nuclear program.
Iran has re-installed monitoring equipment and boosted its cooperation with international inspectors even as its engineers added to stockpiles of uranium enriched closer to weapons grade, the global nuclear watchdog reported Wednesday. IAEA inspectors had raised concerns in March over the presence of uranium particles enriched to 84% levels of purity and chided Iran’s slow response to separate investigations, raising the prospect of worsening tensions in the Middle East (Bloomberg).
With Israeli officials warning they could take military action against Iran if it produces 90% weapons-grade material, U.S. and European officials have been considering ways of preventing a nuclear crisis, including some kind of freeze of Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for modest sanctions relief for Iran. Iran has said only a full return to the 2015 nuclear deal and a broad lifting of U.S. sanctions would persuade it to roll back its nuclear work (Wall Street Journal).
