Iran nuclear deal could see Iran run centrifuges at its Fordo facilities

#irannucleardeal #fordo #centrifuges #uraniumemrichment The Iran nuclear deal is supposed to be finalized by end March and indications are there that Iran may get permission to retain a once-secret fortified bunker full of centrifuges in Fordo facility as part of a deal over its nuclear program.
This has been reported in news.sky.com dated 27 March 2015.

US officials who are negotiating the deal are believed to be considering a quid pro quo that would allow Iran to keep hundreds of centrifuges at its Fordo facility and, in return, it would reduce the number of centrifuges at other locations.
Under the agreement that is being worked out, the Fordo centrifuges would not be allowed to enrich uranium. However, other elements like zinc and xenon could be processed for medical and other scientific research. Incidentally, the existence of Fordo had been revealed early in the presidency of Barack Obama after western intelligence agencies had come across it.
The International Atomic Energy Agency IAEA has criticized Iran for breaching an agreement under which it is necessary to declare such facilities as they were being built. Fordo is seen as a symbol of Iran's record of concealing its nuclear program. An obvious inference is that Iran want to enrich uranium for military in purposes but Iran continues to deny any such intention. It maintains that its nuclear program is for civilian and peaceful ends only.
