Iran honours Uranium Deal, No Atomic Bomb Threat by Iran

Iran signed a deal in July with six international powers.

Under the deal, Iran agreed to reduce its holdings of low-enriched uranium; sharply reduce its quantity of centrifuges – used to enrich uranium – and cut its output of plutonium by re-engineering a power plant.The US says Iran has taken a “significant step” towards meeting its nuclear commitments, by sending a large quantity of uranium abroad.Secretary of State John Kerry spoke after Iran dispatched a shipment of more than 11 tonnes of low-enriched uranium to Russia.Mr Kerry said Monday’s shipment of low-enriched uranium to Russia had tripled the amount of time it would take to produce enough fuel for a bomb – from two or three months to nine months It is designed to demonstrate that Iran is not on the threshold of being able to make an atomic bomb.
