Iranian will boost its uranium enrichment after July 7 to whatever levels it needs beyond the cap set in the landmark 2015 nuclear deal, Hassan Rouhani said on Wednesday (July 3), defying US efforts to force Tehran to renegotiate the pact.
"Our level of enrichment will no longer be 3.67%. We will put this commitment aside by whatever amount we feel like, by whatever amount is our necessity, our need. We will take this above 3.67," said Rouhani to officials.
Iranian regime announced this week it has stockpiled more low-enriched uranium than is permitted under the accord, a move that prompted US President Donald Trump - who withdrew the United States from the deal last year - to warn Iran was "playing with fire."
European co-signatories said on Tuesday (July 2) they were "extremely concerned" by Tehran's apparent breach of the deal while Israel said it was preparing for possible involvement in any military confrontation between Iran and the United States.
