European warn Iran over enriched uranium metal production

Iran has begun the process of producing enriched uranium metal, it has told the global nuclear watchdog.

Tehran informed the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) that the process was to develop fuel for a research reactor. But uranium metal could also be used to make the core of a nuclear bomb.

European powers said Iran's move breached a nuclear deal and threatened talks to revive it. The US called it an "unfortunate step backwards".

Under the nuclear deal, Iran agreed not to produce uranium metal or conduct research and development (R&D) on uranium metallurgy for 15 years.

But in December, Iran's parliament passed a law requiring the government to bring the metallic uranium factory at the Isfahan Fuel Fabrication Plant on line within five months.
