Saturday, France, Germany, and Britain criticized Iran’s IAEA-reported latest efforts to expand its nuclear program. “Iran has taken further steps in hollowing out the JCPoA, by operating dozens of additional advanced centrifuges at the Natanz enrichment site and announcing it will install thousands more centrifuges at both its Fordow and Natanz sites,” the joint statement said, referring to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that Iran and the United States agreed upon in 2015.
It went on to say that “this decision is a further escalation of Iran’s nuclear program, which carries significant risks of proliferation.” The joint assertion focused on that “Iran’s choice to considerably expand its creation limit at the underground Fordow office is particularly disturbing”. “Iran is legally required to fully implement its safeguards agreement, which is separate from the JCPoA, under the Non-Proliferation Treaty.”
