Iran to ship 9k tons of enriched uranium to Russia in coming days

‘Tehran will export 9,000 tons of enriched uranium stockpile to Russia within days, according to the head of Iran’s nuclear agency. The move is part of what Iran agreed to in the nuclear deal struck in July.

“In the next few days around 9 tons of Iran’s enriched uranium will be exported to Russia,” Ali Akbar Salehi, head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization (AEOI), said on Saturday, according to Iranian news agency IRNA.

Under the nuclear deal, Tehran has to limit its stockpile of enriched uranium to around 300 kilograms (660 lbs), mothball most of its centrifuges as well as remove the core of a heavy water reactor at Arak to ensure it cannot produce plutonium.’
