In the coming months, there are risks of Iran's proliferation of nuclear weapons. The UK and France are already working on strategies for possible developments, stated the head of France’s foreign intelligence service, Nicolas Lerner, according to Reuters.
"Our services are working side by side to face what is undoubtedly one of the threats, if not to say the most critical threat, in the coming months - the possible atomic proliferation in Iran," said Lerner.
According to him, intelligence on the situation with Iran's nuclear weapons will be decisive. After that, the authorities of a number of countries will be able to make the right decisions and determine the right strategies.
Earlier, we reported that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors passed a resolution demanding that Iran urgently improve its cooperation with the agency and provide a comprehensive report. This document is reportedly aimed at pushing Tehran toward new nuclear negotiations.
