Iran can produce fissile material for bomb in ‘one or two weeks’: Blinken
WASHINGTON: Iran is capable of producing fissile material for use in a nuclear weapon within “one or two weeks,” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Friday. The details on Iran’s capabilities emerged following the recent election of President Masoud Pezeshkian. He has said he wants to end Iran’s isolation and favors reviving the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and global powers. Blinken said, however, that “what we’ve seen in the last weeks and months is an Iran that’s actually moving forward” with its nuclear program.
