If they don't want, or treat with wanting, why are they refining all that fissile material then?

They do want the bomb

For fuel for electricity generation, as explicitly allowed in the treaties.

Then why go over a couple of percent of refinement? There is no other reason than to make weapon grade uranium. At 60 percent they are not "2 weeks from a bomb" but they are fucking far from 3-4% that is used for civil energy generation.

Did they go to 60%? Verified by the UN? I wasn't aware of that...

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Well you are now, and even 20% means they want to at least pretend to work towards an atomic bomb.

You surely have a link to the un report...
