General Mohammad Ismail Kothari, a parliamentary deputy for Tehran, threatened Thursday that his country could increase uranium enrichment from 60 percent to 93 percent purity, which is deemed “weapons’ grade” if the other parties continued to delay the revival of the nuclear agreement.
State-run ISNA news agency quoted Kothari as saying that Iran had the ability to raise uranium enrichment from 60 percent to 93 percent; which is deemed a nuclear bomb, adding: “Although we are not pursuing this case; if the other party is late, we have the ability to do that.”
