The International Atomic Energy Agency has corrected its previous estimate of the size of Iran’s uranium stockpile.
The IAEA said on Thursday that Iran’s stockpile of low-enriched uranium gas is 8,290 kg. The agency had announced last week that Iran’s stockpile of low-enriched uranium had increased by 625 kg to around 8.4 tons since the IAEA’s September report, estimating the stock to be nearly 8,390 kg. The size of Tehran’s uranium stockpile is one of the moot points in negotiations between Iran and the major powers on a final deal to resolve the dispute over Tehran’s nuclear program.
