Iran Neutralized Half of Uranium Stock – IAEA

RIA Novosti, PUBLISHED 18.04.2014

Iran has neutralized half of its highly-enriched uranium stockpile, according to a report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) quoted by the Associated Press on Thursday.

The confidential report was distributed to the members of the UN nuclear organization.

In February, the IAEA reported that Iran’s stockpile of partially-enriched uranium hexafluoride dropped to 160 kilograms, a reduction of almost 20 percent.

The P5+1 group of world powers, which comprises the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany, finalized a deal in January to ease certain economic sanctions on Iran in exchange for a temporary freeze on some aspects of the country's nuclear program.

Unfortunately, we live in this age of narrow political thinking. Each of our politicians think how to survive, whether he will be the next convocation of the parliament or the government or not.

The goal for these negotiations is to reach a mutually-agreed long-term comprehensive solution that would ensure Iran's nuclear programme will be exclusively peaceful. Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will Iran ever seek or develop any nuclear weapons.
