Iranian uranium will be transported to Turkey for enrichment in a month

Iran News reports that Iranian low-enriched uranium will possibly be send to Turkey in a month, after an agreement was signed between Teheran and the International Atomic Energy Agency.

In the framework of the agreement, 1.2 tons of low-enriched uranium (3.5%) will be changed into 120 kg of high-enriched nuclear fuel (20%) on the territory of Turkey, reports RIA Novosti.

After the ceremony of signing of the agreement Ahmet Davutoglu, the foreign minister of Turkey, said that international sanctions against Iran were no longer necessary. For his part, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called on the world community to recommence talks on the Iranain nuclear program.

However, the agency ISNA reports that the agreement, consisting of 10 paragraphs, presupposes that if the sides do not finally coordinate their positions in 7 days the uranium will be brought back to Iran.
