US Demands on Iranian Nuclear Program are not Legitimate

The latest US demands for the complete suspension of Iran’s uranium enrichment program, according to an analyst, are both ‘illegal’ and ‘humiliating’ specially from a country who has a spree of invading countries in the name of “Peace” but “Devastated” Nations.

In an interview with the media Dr. Peter J. Kuznick, Director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University in Washington, D.C., said enrichment for peaceful purposes is an “inalienable right” of signatory states under Article IV of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

He recalled that under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly known as the Iran nuclear deal, Iran had already agreed to limit its enrichment and faithfully abided by that pact, a fact repeatedly verified by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) through constant and invasive inspections.

“Now Iran refuses to abandon its right to enrich,” Kuznick said. “Trump insists upon coming up with a better deal than the one (Barack) Obama negotiated. Eliminating Iranian enrichment does not look like it’s going to be part of it.”
