If the Iranian regime fulfills its threat, not only would inspections be suspended to its uranium centrifugers, in addition to the controls of the International Atomic Energy Agency (OIEA), but also would open the door to a worrying acceleration of its military nuclear programwith the consequent regional and world uncertainty.
Carlos Umaña, an activist of the international campaign for the abolition of nuclear weapons, warns: Iran could be able to build an atomic bomb – as very soon – in 12 months. “We already have a failure that is North Korea, and if I will also add to that occultism, the non -proliferation regime will undoubtedly weaken,” says Umaña.
Iran is taking the first steps before breaking with the TNP
This week the first steps have already been taken when The Iranian Parliament has approved a bill that seeks to suspend cooperation with the OIEAwhich has already raised the criticisms of its director, Rafael Grossi. He does not believe that this helps anyone, not even Iran. “I would only lead to isolation and all kinds of problems. Perhaps also to collapse, and a very serious erosion in the structure of the Nuclear Non -Proliferation Treaty,” says this Israeli army spokesman.
Iran signed the Nuclear Non -Proliferation Treaty in 1968 and ratified it two years later (guaranteeing the right to use nuclear energy in exchange for developing atomic weapons). The truth is that Tehran- that is known- accumulates more than 400 kilos of 60% enriched uranium. Umaña, whose organization was recognized with the Nobel Peace Prize, admits that the consequences of Iran’s abandonment could be devastating and a danger to the planet.
“The consequences would be devastating,” according to experts
Umaña explains the consequences of an atomic bomb: “A nuclear winter capable of annihilating much of life on earth would be created, it would destroy our civilization and also our space. With a nuclear weapon the war would not last days or months, it would last minutes, ”adds the expert.
A recent one Pentagon report reveals that the United States intervention in the war between Israel and Iran has managed to delay the Iranian nuclear program a couple of monthscontrasting with the triumphalism of the American president Donald Trump who speaks of decades.
Much more ambiguous with its nuclear program is Israel, which neither confirms or denys, although it is believed that they could have between 80 and 400 nuclear eyelaces. But that presumes that the attacks against Iranian uranium centrifugers “have delayed their atomic strategy for several years,” according to Effie Defrin, military spokesman for the Netanyahu Benjamin Army.
What countries have nuclear weapons?
Five signatory countries of the non -proliferation treaty officially have thermonuclear weapons: United States, United Kingdom, France, Russia and China. Unofficially, Israel also has it. Partially Japan, which has the necessary technology, although it has no intention of manufacturing any atomic bomb. Pakistan, India and North Korea claim to have tried it, but it has not been possible to certify Because they are out of controls. And this situation could be replicated if the Ayatolás regime breaks with the Nuclear Non -Proliferation Treaty.
