A higher-ranking UN officer revealed that Iran has accumulated ample raw material for making nuclear weapon. Western political analysts have been anticipating that at one point of time, Iran would gather sufficient low- enriched uranium which can later be used to make bombs.
There was a suspicion that if Tehran was successful in gathering more than 1000kg of low- enriched uranium, Israel may possibly take independent military action against Iran to foil Iran’s plan of making nuclear weapon.
Nevertheless, the nuclear overseer of UN has confirmed that Iran has not yet started to manufacture any weapon. They are under constant scrutiny. Detailed statements by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmed that Iran did accumulate 1,010kg of low-enriched uranium. Despite repeated warnings from the UN, Iran maintained that it is for generating electricity.
According to experts, even if Iran stocks up enough uranium for manufacturing bombs, it still will require to prevail over the technical problems at Natanz and make a weapon. And that would take four five years.
