¿Pueden las potencias mundiales frenar a Irán en las nuevas conversaciones nucleares?
November 29, 2021 - Las conversaciones para restablecer el pacto nucler entre Irán y las potencias mundiales, que el entonces presidente estadounidense Donald Trump abandonó en 2018, se han reanudado en Viena.
The nuclear deal saw Iran limit its enrichment of uranium in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions. Since the deal’s collapse, Iran now enriches small amounts of uranium up to 60% purity – a short step from weapons-grade levels of 90%. Iran also spins advanced centrifuges barred by the accord and its uranium stockpile now far exceeds the accord’s limits, AP said.
Iran maintains its atomic programme is peaceful. However, U.S. intelligence agencies and international inspectors say Iran had an organised nuclear weapons programme up until 2003. Nonproliferation experts fear the brinkmanship could push Tehran toward even more-extreme measures to try and force the West to lift sanctions.
