The US, Britain, France and Germany yesterday expressed “serious concern” over Iran’s plans to launch a series of new centrifuges for its nuclear program, urging Tehran to reengage with the UN nu clear watchdog.
Iran’s announcement came after the four Western powers brought a censure motion targeting the Islamic republic at the 35-nation board of the Internation al Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The resolution was adopted on Thursday.
“We note with serious concern Iran’s announcement... that, instead of responding to the resolution with cooperation, it plans to respond with further expansion of its nuclear program in ways that have no credible peaceful rationale,” the four nations said in a joint statement released by the US State Department.
