Taking Stock of Iran's Nuclear Program

A stocktaking of Iran’s “visible” nuclear project is a relatively easy task. Much has been disclosed to the world and subsequently reported about this project. Iran has succeeded in dulling the impact of this information, helped in no small way by the IAEA and some of Iran’s friends, notably Russia. It is therefore important to take note of the extent of this program, its achievements and possible developments in order to eliminate any complacency about Iran’s program and dispel the notion that this has been designed as a “peaceful” program (as Iran and its friends claim).
