Important note on #Fordow. You can inject gas for... 1) enriching uranium with uranium gas (clear JCPOA breach) 2) injecting surrogate gas like sulphur into centrifuges for mechanical testing (not a JCPOA breach) 3) for isotope production which Iran is allowed to do there 1/2
My understanding is @HassanRouhani was not clear which one they were doing.But my understanding also that #Iran hasn't (with Russia help) finished transforming machines for isotope production and using surrogate gas wld contaminate centrifuges. So uranium enrichment makes sense-2
@HassanRouhani This according to Iran's IRNA is text of @HassanRouhani remarks. Nowhere here does Rouhani say Iran will start enriching uranium. Only injecting gas. Again, it is very likely Iran is going to start enriching uranium -- why else wld it announce this as latest step? but 3/4
@HassanRouhani that doesn't seem to be what Rouhani said. #Iran 4/4
@HassanRouhani Further to this, a read of JCPOA text shows (pg 31-33) there are specific provisions on which centrifuges should be spinning and how many can be fed with gas. so even if not being fed with uranium, these Fordow steps still moves away from #Irandeal europarl.europa.eu/cmsdata/122460…
