United States Energy Secretary Chris Wright said in a Senate testimony on Wednesday that Iran is “frighteningly close to” and a “small number of weeks away from” enriching uranium to a nuclear weapon-grade level, although he conceded that manufacturing a nuclear weapon would take some more time. Wright stated that Iran has “some 20% enriched uranium” and that it would take “several more weeks” to reach 60%. “But when you’re at 60%, although the numbers don’t sound that way, you’re way more than 90% of the way there for the enrichment necessary for weapons-grade uranium,” he claimed. shoc
