2024: The year Iran will go Nuclear if western powers do not act – Analysis

Considering Iran's track record of failing to honor any commitments, efforts at diplomacy are destined to fail

Newsroom January 10 11:11

Should the Biden administration persist in pursuing a leadership approach perceived as lacking in strength, and should the Biden administration continue to pursue a strategy characterized by conciliation and concession towards the Iranian regime, 2024 will mark the year that the Islamic Republic of Iran acquires nuclear weapons, heralding a pivotal development in their military capabilities and devastating, far-reaching repercussions for regional and international security. If the US fails to remove Iran’s nuclear capability – and not just (literally) buy time to enable it – the catastrophes that follow will surely go down as US President Joe Biden’s legacy, as well as the legacy of those around him.

Iran has substantially increased its production rate of uranium, which, after tripling its output in the past few weeks, is now nearing weapons-grade levels, according to a recent report from the International Atomic Energy Agency.

In response to Iran’s advancing nuclear capabilities, the US and Western powers’ reaction has so far amounted to a “condemnation,” indicating a lack of measures to impede Iran’s progress, and suggesting a passive stance of acceptance rather than an active effort to counter Iran’s actions.

In a statement, the United Kingdom, France, Germany and the United States disapproved of this development, stating that they “condemn this measure that further aggravates the continued escalation of the Iranian nuclear program.” As the saying goes, “Strong letter to follow.”
