专家表示,若伊朗保留任何浓缩基础设施,将使其得以重启迈向核武器的道路

福克斯新闻高级外交事务记者格雷格·帕洛特在《美国报道》节目中报道了唐纳德·特朗普总统结束伊朗冲突、确保霍尔木兹海峡安全的努力。
在特朗普总统与伊朗分散的领导层就伊朗政权坚持保留其核浓缩系统展开的激烈交锋中,伊朗核武器项目的顶级专家们支持这位总司令彻底解散该项目的坚定目标。
德黑兰与华盛顿之间紧张谈判的主要症结之一,是伊朗声称这个流氓政权有权浓缩并拥有武器级铀——这是制造原子弹所需的材料。如果下一轮核协议谈判在巴基斯坦举行,这场围绕浓缩铀的对峙可能会成为核心的谈判破裂因素。
伊朗外交部发言人伊斯梅尔·巴盖伊上周在国家电视台上强烈拒绝了特朗普的要求。他宣称:“在任何情况下,伊朗的浓缩铀都不会被转移到任何地方。”

特朗普称伊朗已同意“把深埋地下的核尘埃还给我们”。在美军持续打击储存伊朗铀储备的伊朗设施后,特朗普将伊朗的440公斤浓缩铀称为“核尘埃”。
“美国在谈判中应坚持永久禁止伊朗浓缩活动,并彻底拆除其浓缩设施。如果伊朗在暂停期结束前保留任何浓缩基础设施,那么一旦特朗普离任,伊朗就可以作弊,重启迈向核武器的道路,”防务民主基金会防扩散项目副主任安德里亚·斯特里克告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。
美国犹太战略研究所美国战略研究员乔纳森·鲁赫在废除伊朗浓缩项目的重要性上与斯特里克持相同观点。他告诉福克斯新闻数字频道:“一份可接受的协议必须体现特朗普在首届政府以及去年夏天12天战争前夕明确提出的诸多红线。这意味着永久禁止浓缩、后处理和武器化能力——同样重要的是,要全面核查伊朗对这些限制的遵守情况。”

特朗普总统2018年退出了奥巴马总统广受批评的伊朗核协议——《联合全面行动计划》(JCPOA)。特朗普当时表示:“从理论上讲,所谓的‘伊朗协议’本应保护美国及其盟友免受伊朗核弹的疯狂威胁,这种武器只会危及伊朗政权的生存。但实际上,该协议允许伊朗继续浓缩铀,并随着时间推移接近核突破的边缘。”
鲁赫表示:“JCPOA未能确保国际原子能机构(IAEA)的检查员能够监测并说明伊朗整个核项目的情况,以及伊朗是否遵守了协议。十年来,随着伊朗系统性地阻挠检查员工作,这个问题已经严重恶化。”
他说:“伊朗的谈判代表总是拖延谈判,避免给出明确答复。他们仍然认为时间站在他们这边,他们的封锁正在损害全球经济,他们的导弹库正在被挖掘出来并准备投入新的冲突。特朗普应该坚持要求德黑兰给出明确回应,并准备好采取新的军事行动。”

“一个警示故事是:奥巴马团队最初带着严格的红线进入核谈判,但后来他们让伊朗看穿了他们的虚张声势,无视他们的最后期限,逐步削弱他们的要求,直到我们最终达成了JCPOA,”鲁赫说。
伊朗是《不扩散核武器条约》(NPT)的签署国,该条约要求伊朗不得为军事目的浓缩铀。然而,美国和欧洲的情报报告记录了伊朗的非法扩散活动。
鲁赫说:“这个政权愤世嫉俗地想两全其美:他们坚称NPT赋予了‘和平浓缩’的‘权利’,但却无视条约的保障条款。通过声称这种‘权利’,他们试图将某些核心问题定为不可谈判的。按照这种逻辑,他们应该有权保留浓缩能力,那么接下来的问题就变成了浓缩规模有多大,以及美国需要为此付出多少代价,来换取伊朗所谓的‘牺牲’。”
他补充道:“正如《不扩散核武器条约》的名称所示,这是一份防止扩散的协议,而非推动核发展的协议。”
斯特里克说,国际原子能机构总干事拉斐尔·格罗西最近表示:“NPT的和平用途条款中具体提到‘浓缩’是虚构的。此外,联合国安理会的普遍法律要求是伊朗停止浓缩活动,并重新遵守其防扩散义务。近25年来,国际原子能机构一直无法确定伊朗所有的核材料和活动都用于和平用途。”
她补充道:“伊朗的浓缩项目始于非法采购和隐蔽设施,当时伊朗有一个核武器计划,计划将浓缩铀作为燃料。伊朗显然一直在为明显的核突破储备材料。”

Nuclear experts warn Iran’s uranium ‘right’ is a myth, say Trump is right to hold firm

Expert says Iran retaining any enrichment infrastructure would let it resume its path to nuclear weapons
By Benjamin Weinthal Fox News
Fox News senior foreign affairs correspondent Greg Palkot reports on President Donald Trump’s efforts to end the Iran conflict and secure the Strait of Hormuz on ‘America Reports.’
Amid the charged exchanges between President Trump and Iran’s fragmented leadership over the regime’s insistence that it retain its nuclear enrichment system, top experts on Iran’s atomic weapons program support the Commander-in-Chief’s ironclad goal to dissolve it.
One of the main sticking points during the intense talks between Tehran and Washington centers on Iran’s claim that the rouge regime has a right to enrich and possess weapon-grade uranium — the material required to build an atomic bomb. The showdown over enriched uranium might be the core deal breaker issue when and if the next round of talks to reach a nuclear agreement goes ahead in Pakistan.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Esmael Baqaei, vehemently rejected Trump’s demand last week on state-controlled television. “Iran’s enriched uranium is not going to be transferred anywhere under any circumstances,” he declared.

Trump claimed Iran had agreed to “give us back the nuclear dust that’s way underground.” The President terms Iran’s 440 kilograms of enriched uranium as “nuclear dust” after sustained U.S. military strikes on the Iranian facilities that store the country’s stockpile of uranium.
“The United States should insist on a permanent ban of Iranian enrichment and its full dismantlement in negotiations. Iran retaining any enrichment infrastructure in anticipation of the end of a moratorium would allow it to cheat as soon as Trump leaves office and resume its path to nuclear weapons,” Andrea Stricker, deputy director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ nonproliferation program, told Fox News Digital.
Jonathan Ruhe, fellow for American strategy at JINSA, echoed Stricker on the importance of abolishing the Iranian enrichment program. He told Fox News Digital “An acceptable deal would have to embody many of Trump’s stated redlines from his first administration, and from the run-up to last summer’s 12-Day War. This means permanent bans on enrichment, reprocessing and weaponization capability – and equally importantly, full verification of Iran’s compliance with these strictures.”

President Trump withdrew from President Obama’s widely criticized nuclear deal with Iran, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), in 2018. Trump said at the time, “In theory, the so-called ‘Iran deal’ was supposed to protect the United States and our allies from the lunacy of an Iranian nuclear bomb, a weapon that will only endanger the survival of the Iranian regime. In fact, the deal allowed Iran to continue enriching uranium and, over time, reach the brink of a nuclear breakout.”
Ruhe said, “The JCPOA failed to ensure IAEA [International Atomic Energy Agency] inspectors could monitor, and account for, the entirety of Iran’s program and its compliance with the deal. This problem has worsened significantly in the decade since, as Iran systematically stonewalled inspectors.”
He said, “Iran’s negotiators always drag out talks and avoid giving clear answers. They still think time is on their side, with their blockade hurting the global economy and their missile arsenals being dug out and prepared for renewed conflict. Trump should insist on a definitive response from Tehran, and be ready for renewed operations.

“As a cautionary tale: the Obama team first entered nuclear talks with stringent redlines, but then they let Iran call their bluffs, ignore their deadlines and wear down their demands until we ended up with the JCPOA,” Ruhe said.
Iran is a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) that obligates it not to enrich uranium for military purposes. However, U.S. and European intelligence reports have documented Iran’s illicit proliferation activities.
Ruhe said, “This regime cynically wants it both ways: they insist the NPT gives the ‘right’ to peaceful enrichment, yet they flout the treaty’s safeguards. By claiming this ‘right,’ they try to make certain core issues non-negotiable. By this logic, they should get to retain enrichment capacity, so the questions then become how much and what the U.S. has to give in return for this supposed sacrifice by Iran.”
He continued that, “As the Nonproliferation Treaty’s name indicates, it’s an agreement to prevent proliferation, not to promote nuclear development.”

Stricker said Rafael Grossi, the head of the IAEA, recently stated that, “it’s fiction that the NPT specifically mentions ‘enrichment’ in its peaceful uses clause. Moreover, the prevailing legal demand from the U.N. Security Council is that Iran stop enriching and come back into compliance with its nonproliferation obligations. For nearly 25 years, the IAEA has been unable to conclude that all of Iran’s nuclear material and activities are devoted to peaceful uses.”
She added that “Iran’s enrichment program began through illicit procurements and covert facilities, under a nuclear weapons program that planned to use enriched uranium as fuel. Iran was clearly stockpiling material for an apparent nuclear weapons breakout.”
