US President Donald Trump has said that any new nuclear facilities deciding to build Iran will be destroyed, while the administration’s claim has doubled that the US military has “completely destroyed” three nuclear sites in the West Asian country in June.
“All three nuclear sites in Iran were completely destroyed and/or despised. It would take years to bring them back to service, and if Iran wanted to do so, they would be better to start fresh in three different places before those sites, would they decide to do so,” What was said in a post on the truth social on Saturday (local time).
On Thursday, several news outlets reported new intelligence, indicating that Iran’s nuclear promotion place in Fordo was mostly destroyed during June 21, called ‘Midnight Hammer’, but two other major sites, Natanz and Isfahan, were not, and possible the request if the Tehran was defeated.
The White House denied the report, while issuing a statement, the defense department’s chief spokesperson Irana Parnell said, “Fake news media’s credibility is similar to the current status of Iranian nuclear facilities: destroyed, dirt, and years will take years to recover.”
“President Trump was clear, and American people understand: Iran’s nuclear features were completely and completely oblique in Fordo, Isfahan, and Natanz,” it reads.
CNN reported on 24 June that the American intelligence community believes that the US attacks have failed to achieve complete destruction of the major components of Tehran’s nuclear program. An early American intelligence investigation shows that the possibility of an attack only sets back to Iran’s nuclear weapon program for several months.
It was performed by the US Defense Intelligence Agency, which mentioned low confidence in the accuracy of its own evaluation.
Meanwhile, Iran’s President Masaud Peseshakian has reiterated his country’s legitimate right to use nuclear power for peaceful purposes, saying that it is completely unacceptable to deprive Irani of his legal rights.
Iran’s state media IRNA reported that in a telephone conversation with the Armenian Prime Minister Nicole Pashinian on Saturday afternoon, Peseshkian stressed that the Islamic Republic is committed to international law and has faith in transparency of nuclear activities.
Pezeshkian also said that the relationship between Iran and Armenia as historical and sociable, saying that the Islamic Republic is eager to pursue creative interaction with all neighboring countries.
The United States and Iran had held several rounds of conversations before the Israeli attacks, which landed from the 12-day war with Iran. Both the US and Iran have indicated the desire to continue their conversation with the aim of reaching a deal on Tehran’s nuclear enrichment program. Omani and Katri officials have been involved in mediation between Tehran and Washington.
Washington says that Iran’s uranium enrichment program may develop atomic bombs, while Tehran has constantly denied claims, saying that its atomic program is for civil purposes.
In July 2015, the Iran Nuclear Agreement is known as a joint comprehensive action plan (JCPOA), signed between Iran and many world powers including the United States, which reduced Tehran’s enrichment level to 3.67 percent and reduced its uranium stockpile by 300 kg.
The deal was joined by Trump’s unilateral comeback in 2018 in 2018. Since then, Iran has begun to cross the limit of more than the consent-limit for its reserves of low-rich uranium in 2019, and began to enrich uranium into high concentrations, up to 60 percent of purity, which is very close to the weapon-grade level.
Earlier this month, Iranian President Pezeshakian signed a bill in the law, suspending cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Iran’s state broadcaster said that after Parliament approved the law, Pezeshakian confirmed the bill. (AI)
