Iran says it has further enriched its uranium, drawing widespread condemnation
Fox News
Iran has taken steps to enrich uranium metal to a 20 percent purity and manufacture nuclear reactor fuel the United Nation’s top nuclear watchdog announced Tuesday.
State Department spokesperson Ned Price said it was "another unfortunate step backwards" as the U.S. has engaged in indirect talks on nuclear nonproliferation with Iran since April. Price told reporters Tuesday that the move will not give Iran any leverage as the U.S. seeks to re-establish a nuclear agreement with the Middle Eastern nation, and said the "window for diplomacy remains open."More Related News
