U.N. officials announced on Monday that Iran has inked a historic agreement with six world powers to scale back production of medium-grade uranium.
“In line with the implementation of the Geneva joint plan of action, Iran suspended the production of 20% enriched uranium in the presence of U.N. nuclear watchdog inspectors at Natanz and Fordo sites,” said Mohammad Amiri, director general for safeguards at Iran’s Atomic Energy Organisation, according to the state-run IRNA news agency.
