The director of US national intelligence has acknowledged in a recent report called the “Annual Threat Assessment” that Iran’s nuclear activities are not aimed at producing weapons.
According to Pak Sahafat News Agency’s International group, the Office of the US Director of Intelligence in the latest report called “Annual Threat Assessment” has acknowledged that the activities of the Islamic Republic of Iran are not in the direction of building nuclear weapons.
The report states: “Our assessment remains that Iran is not engaged in key activities to build a nuclear weapon.”
The report added: “In July 2019, after the withdrawal of the United States from Borjam in May 2018, Iran resumed some activities that went beyond Borjam. If Iran does not receive sanctions relief, Iranian officials are likely to consider further uranium enrichment of up to 90 percent.
The report states that Iran has consistently identified the resumption of its nuclear activities as a reversible response to the withdrawal from the IAEA Board, and has sent a message that if the United States lifts sanctions and adheres to its IAEA obligations; it will fully adhere to the IAEA Board.
Western countries, led by the United States and the Zionist regime, have in recent years accused Iran of pursuing military goals in its nuclear program. Iran has strongly denied these allegations.
Iran emphasizes that as a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, it has the right to acquire nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.
In addition, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors have visited Iran’s nuclear facilities several times, but have never found any evidence that the country’s peaceful nuclear energy program is deviating from military purposes.
In addition, in 2015, Iran reached an agreement with the so-called P5 + 1 countries to resolve tensions over its nuclear program. Despite the International Atomic Energy Agency’s acknowledgment of Iran’s compliance with all its obligations, the US government unilaterally withdrew from the agreement in May 2018.
