UN nuclear watchdog chief says Iran has accepted request to stop increasing near weapons grade uranium stock

International Atomic Energy Agency chief Rafael Grossi said Iran has accepted a request to stop increasing its 60% uranium stock, which is enriched to near weapons-grade levels. Uranium enriched at 60% purity is just a short, technical step away from weapons-grade levels of 90%. Although cautious, Grossi was optimistic about the prospect emphasizing that Iran may be taking "a different direction," and adding that it "merits serious consideration".
