Wed Dec 30, 2015 10:32 pm
A ship carrying 11,000 tonnes of low-enriched uranium left Iran for Russia on Monday, marking one of the most vital steps yet in a high-stakes deal to deny Iran a nuclear weapon, The Guardian reported.
“I am pleased to report that we have seen important indications of significant progress towards Iran completing its key nuclear commitments under the deal,” the US secretary of state, John Kerry, said, according to The Guardian.
Under the deal between Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers, Tehran agreed to scale back its nuclear program so that Washington and its allies were assured it would no longer be on the threshold of being able to produce an atomic weapon. In return, Tehran will have access to about $100 billion of previously frozen assets and fully return to the oil market.
