In an interview with Austrian Newspaper Die Presse yesterday, Saturday, he said in response to a question about how long it would take Iran to build a nuclear weapon: “We are looking at the large and minimal amount of enriched uranium or plutonium needed to build a nuclear bomb, Iran does not currently have this large amount. "

On the other hand, Tehran denies it has a nuclear weapons program and claims that its nuclear program is only for energy purposes.

While the US and Israeli intelligence agencies confirm that they have evidence that the Iranian regime seeks to acquire nuclear weapons, in violation of its international obligations.

It is noteworthy that the spokesman for the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization, Behrouz Kamalundi, announced in mid-September, "that Tehran is testing the new generation of centrifuges, and it can rapidly increase its uranium enrichment capacity."
