A group of 40 former government officials and top non-proliferation experts urged US President Joe Biden to successfully complete negotiations to return to the nuclear deal, warning that Tehran was a week or two away from producing enough uranium for the production of nuclear weapons.
In a statement, due to be issued on Thursday, experts said that failure to reverse the policies of the former US President Donald Trump’s administration, which withdrew from the agreement in 2018, would be “irresponsible” and “would increase the danger that Iran would become a threshold nuclear-weapon state.”
