France, Germany and Britain on Saturday condemned Iran's latest
steps, as reported by the IAEA, to further expand its nuclear
program, Azernews reports.
"Iran has taken further steps in hollowing out the JCPoA, by
operating dozens of additional advanced centrifuges at the Natanz
enrichment site as well as 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
signed with Iran in 2015.
"This decision is a further escalation of Iran's nuclear
programme, which carries significant proliferation risks," it
added.
The joint statement stressed that "Iran's decision to
substantially increase its production capacity at the underground
Fordow facility is especially concerning".
"Iran is legally obliged under the Non-Proliferation Treaty to
fully implement its safeguards agreement, which is separate to the
JCPoA."
