Germany, Britain and France expressed deep concern from Iran's decision to expand its nuclear program after it was reported that Tehran had significantly increased production of uranium enriched to 60% at an underground facility "Fordow", broadcasts BTA.
These countries have condemned Iran's actions and stressed that increased production of highly enriched uranium has no "credible civilian justification".
According to the IAEA, Iran can increase the capacity to produce uranium enriched to 60%, which is enough to create a nuclear warhead. However, Iran continues to deny its intention to acquire nuclear weapons, despite Western concerns.
