The Hindu : International : Iran not producing weapon-grade uranium: IAEA: "DUBAI: Iran has not converted the low-grade uranium that it has produced into weapon-grade uranium, inspectors belonging to the International Atomic Energy Agency have said.

The expert added that “so far, Iran has carried out good cooperation with us in relevant verifications”."
