Iran claims it has nearly doubled its stockpile of enriched uranium ahead of the resumption of talks to restart the Iran nuclear deal. AEOI head Mohammad Eslam said in October that Iran had produced 120 kilograms of 20 percent enriched uranium, CBS News reported. ADVERTISEMENTThe announcement of the increase in uranium comes as Iran has agreed to resume talks on Nov. 29 in Vienna to restart the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly called the Iran nuclear deal. In response, Iran began breaking the conditions of the JCPOA and increased its nuclear activity. Iran is looking at getting sanctions lifted that they have denounced as “unlawful & inhumane.”The U.S. will be participating in the nuclear talks on Nov. 29 after they sat out of the previous six discussions in the spring surrounding the deal, only communicating indirectly in the talks.
