In an interview with Le Monde published on Wednesday, hours before a visit to Tehran, the head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog was quoted as saying that Iran is not far from possessing an atomic bomb.
International Atomic Energy Agency head Rafael Grossi stated that Iran still had a way to go before acquiring the bomb but added, “They’re not far from it, you have to acknowledge that.”
Grossi compared the development of a nuclear weapon to a jigsaw puzzle, saying that Iran “has the pieces, and they could eventually put them together one day.”
Grossi was scheduled to arrive in Iran later on Wednesday for talks with senior officials.
The UN watchdog has been tasked with overseeing Iran’s compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal, which collapsed after Donald Trump withdrew from it during his first term as US president.
