Iran Is Rapidly Developing Ballistic Missiles, CIA Director
Washington: Iran is just weeks away from enriching its uranium to 90 percent despite sanctions, the US intelligence agency has warned.
According to Al-Arabiya News, the American intelligence agency, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), has warned that the production of ballistic missiles in Iran is continuing at a fast pace, while in a few weeks, Iran will be able to enrich uranium up to 90%.
These views were expressed by Bill Burns, director of the American intelligence agency, in an interview with CBS. In response to a question, he said that it would be premature to say that 90 percent of Iran’s uranium enrichment is for military purposes.
The statement from the Atomic Agency came as Iranian officials announced changes to enrich uranium beyond 60 percent.
In response to a question about the Ukraine war, CIA Director Bill Burns said that if China supplies Russia with weapons, it will also have to suffer the consequences.
The director of the CIA said that China is currently considering supplying lethal weapons to the Russian forces, but the delivery has not yet started.
On US policy on Taiwan, Bill Burns said, “I think we need to take seriously Xi Jinping’s ambitions for ultimate control of Taiwan, but that does not mean a military confrontation with China.”
