Iran continues to shake the US Biden administration by revealing that it has begun uranium enrichment activities using a new high-performance centrifuge installed at its central nuclear facility.

The IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency), which monitors Iran's nuclear development, said on the 2nd that Iran will enrich uranium from January 30 at an underground nuclear facility in central Natanz using a newly installed high-performance centrifuge. We told NHK that we had started the activity.



Uranium enrichment activities using high-performance centrifuges are prohibited by the nuclear agreement as they may be used for military purposes.



Iran's IAEA Ambassador to Galib Abadi, on Twitter, claimed that high-performance centrifuges are four times more powerful than traditional ones.



In addition, Ambassador Galib Abadi has indicated that he intends to install another high-performance centrifuge at the nuclear facility in Central Foldu and increase the number in the future.



Iran, which demands the lifting of sanctions in the United States, has continued to shake the Biden administration by indicating that it intends to suspend the acceptance of unannounced inspections by the IAEA since late February. Is growing concerned.
