Spokesman for Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Behrouz Kamalvandi said on Monday that Iran’s 3.67-percent uranium production capacity has grown by four times, Trend reports citing IRNA.
In a news conference with reporters who visited Ahmadi Rowshan Enrichment Complex in Natanz on Monday, he added that Iran's present four-folded capacity is a message to the opposing parties that Iran has the capability of increasing its production capacity using the existing number of its centrifuges.
It will not be too late before Iran breaks the ceiling of 300 kilograms actually within the next few weeks, thanks to the measures undertaken by the domestic nuclear experts, he said.
“If the Europeans want Iran's production capacity to remain at this level, they should take the necessary actions,” Iran's nuclear spokesman said.
“We have no problem with Russia and China, as cooperation is going ahead well,” he said, noting that the Europeans say they oppose sanctions and favor implementation of the JCPOA but tend to ignore the fact that Iran should benefit from the deal in practice.
