U-S Tackles Iran Over nuclear escalations

United Nation nuclear watchdog said Iran has made progress in its work on metallic chemical element, despite Western warnings that such work threatens talks on reviving the Iran nuclear deal.

The United States responded to the report by demanding that Tehran halt its nuclear escalations.

Director-General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, RAFAEL MARIANO GROSSI said his inspectors confirmed that Iran had now produced 200 grammes of uranium metal enriched up to 20 percent, while Iran promised not to produce uranium metal as part of the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.
