US Envoy Says Iran Claimed Uranium Stockpile Enough for 11 Nuclear Bombs in Talks

US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff stated that during early nuclear talks, Iranian negotiators claimed to possess 460 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium, sufficient for 11 nuclear bombs. Iran reportedly emphasized its 'inalienable right' to uranium enrichment, while the US responded with opposition. Witkoff noted that although Iran could potentially produce weapons-grade uranium within days, developing nuclear weapons would require facilities the US says were destroyed last year. Some details about Iran's uranium stockpile align with previous International Atomic Energy Agency reports.
