Iran is using advanced centrifuges banned under the 2015 nuclear deal to enrich uranium faster and well past limits set in the deal.
Behrouz Kamalvandi, spokesman for Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, unveiled the Islamic country’s newest capabilities in a press conference on Saturday, according to the Associated Press. Kamalvandi addressed reporters while standing in front of 20 IR-6 centrifuges and 20 IR-4 centrifuges.
"Under current circumstances, the Islamic Republic of Iran is capable of increasing its enriched uranium stockpile as well as its enrichment levels and that is not just limited to 20%," Kamalvandi said. "We are capable inside the country to increase the enrichment much more beyond that."
Under the nuclear deal, Iran was limited to using just IR-1 centrifuges to enrich uranium. The more advanced iterations of centrifuges can enrich uranium at a much faster rate: 10 times faster for the IR-6s and five times faster for the IR-4s, according to Iranian officials.
The new centrifuges will likely shorten the one-year time frame experts had said Iran needs to be able to obtain enough weapons-grade uranium to build a nuclear bomb.
Kamalvandi said that Iran "is not after the bomb" but warned that "if Europeans want to make any decision, they should do it soon." Several European countries are attempting to strike another deal with Iran after President Trump pulled out of the 2015 nuclear treaty in 2018.
Defense Secretary Mark Esper of the United States said Iran's announcement was predictable, telling reporters at a press conference, "The Iranians are going to pursue what the Iranians have always intended to pursue."

[ It was prophesied by God, through His prophet Ezekiel, over 2,500 years ago.
It will come as a shock for many but it is a sure thing. ]
Absolutely. The LORD has made it very clear. Many will be shocked. Especially Iran and friends at their losses.
What a bunch of losers. They sound like a bunch of kids..."If you don't give me what I want, I'll break that window!!
[The “Iran Nuclear Deal” was a fraud right from the start.]
Yes it was.
Only the Democrats. the European Union and the United Nations are stupid enough to believe in this “deal”.
As Ricky would say: Atodaso.
150 billion.
Better check that. More like $1.5 billion.
Trump said $150 billion but I don’t know where he got that. I think he meant $1.5 billion.
We don’t want $1.5 billion to seem like mouse nuts because it isn’t. Enough to send Obama to prison for giving “aid and comfort” to an enemy of the United States - ie. treason.
The $150 billion that Trump was referring to is the estimated value of Iranian assets that were unfrozen after the Iran nuclear deal was signed in 2015. Folding green cash was $1.5 billion.
They would have done this even if the agreement were signed. Nobody ever signed it.
This says otherwise - did it happen or not?

VTenigma said the same thing on this thread, but more important, Amir Tsarfati said it, and he has connections with Mossad, the only worldwide intelligence outfit worthy of the name.
There is no deal - once the US left the agreement, it was fair game for everyone. We were the only enforcers that mattered.
What are European countries, our so called “allies” going to do? What did they do about Crimea or Donbass?
Ezekiel 38 WILL happen folks. It was prophesied by God, through His prophet Ezekiel, over 2,500 years ago
Amen!
Just wonder how close it is. Everything keeps building towards that moment.
Which is why I expect next to nothing will be done about Iran.
Because it would already take a massive campaign. So many sites spread out over such a large area.
Anyone with two functioning brain cells knew that wasbarkies plan from jump. Thanks for the detailed posting.
Well we’re not mentioned in the Bible but we are allied with Israel. I wonder after Trump if there will be another demon like Soetero and Israel will have to stand alone. Ezekiel 38,39 hasn’t come to pass and I couldn’t see Trump and his crew sitting idly by watching Israel’s battle:
“Eze 38:13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
“Just wonder how close it is”
It happened yesterday.
You still here?
Heh...
It was very interesting durng the Arab Sprintg Obama ‘rescued’ the people that were protesting governments
All except in Iran.
Because they were already run by evil moslems
Of course the other ones he helped turn over to the ‘peaceful’ muslim brotherhood.
Back when ValJar was feeding Obama his instrutions.
“Obama should be arrested for treason.”
Right next to Hillary Clinton and John Kerry.

Except that Hillary Clinton and John Kerry didn’t do half the damage Obama did.
Iran will have a nuke before then if not already. They will shock the world once they announce they “now have” a nuclear device.
All the liberals worldwide will be saying...whah whah whah, we never anticipated such short breakout times. We were certain of our intelligence. The IAEA assured us that the Iranians were not cheating.
