“They can be, you know, in a few months, I would say, some cascade of centrifugas produce spinning and rich uranium, or less,” he said.
Groxy said he believes that the facilities that were hit by American bombs did not suffer severe damage, but did not suffer total damage, and Iran had other means to achieve its nuclear goals.
“Iran had a very ambitious program, and a part of it can still be, and if not, the self-confident truth is also that there is knowledge. Industrial capacity is there. Iran is a very sophisticated country in terms of nuclear technology, as clear,” he said.
President Trump said that the US had abandoned Iran’s three main nuclear facilities “completely”, and other administration officials echoed the same assessment of the success of the mission.
But a preliminary report by the Defense Intelligence Agency suggested that Iran’s nuclear features may only face “limited” damage, which may set the nuclear program back in months.
On Thursday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said The report was a “initial, low -confident report that will be refined” and the US operation is called “historically successful attack”.
Groxy told CBS that it was possible that Iran could transfer the canns of rich uranium before the attack on a secret offsome location. IAEA reported earlier The Iran had a reserves of more than 400 kg – or about 900 pounds – of highly rich uranium.
But President Trump repeated in one Interview broadcast on Fox News On Sunday morning, he believes that it was not so. “First, it is very difficult to do. It is very dangerous to do. It is very heavy, very heavy,” Tram said.
Trump said that he believes that the attacks also surprised Iran – especially the strike at its underground Fordo facility. “And no one thought we would go after that site, because everyone said,” That site is impervious. “
Groxy said it was important to resume discussions for IAEA and Iran, and should be able to continue their work in the country for international inspectors. “We have to go back to the table and have technically sound solution for it,” he said.
