TEHRAN, Feb 14: Iran confirmed on Tuesday it had resumed limited uranium enrichment. “The work has resumed (at the Natanz enrichment facility),” said Javad Vaidi, a member of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council and a senior member of the country’s nuclear negotiating team.
But Mr Vaidi said it was “unacceptable” for Iran to halt its research on uranium enrichment. “There is no reason for the moment to return to the suspension (of activities at Natanz),” he added.
Mr Vaidi cautioned Iran “needs time to reach industrial capacity of up to 60,000 centrifuges” at Natanz, which has two enrichment facilities.—AFP
