The article begins by describing Iran's nuclear policies and how, in recent days, the production of highly enriched uranium has been stepped up. Iran said last week that it had completed its first batch of 20 percent enriched uranium (enough to set off a nuclear reaction) and would soon triple production. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has denounced Iran's new approach, saying that they have not demonstrated that their program is entirely peaceful, and that further sanctions will be placed on them. "The country could get the enriched uranium that it says it wants for medical research by accepting a proposal under which Iran would ship its uranium abroad to be enriched and then returned, but Iran has rejected that offer, Clinton said." What is Iran hiding?
Is it the United States' place to say who can and who cannot enrich uranium? What are Iran's intentions?
