The International Atomic Energy Agency has concluded that Iran has secretly produced small amounts of nuclear material, including low-enriched uranium and plutonium, according to a report obtained by CNN.
"Iran has now acknowledged that it has been developing, for 18 years, a uranium centrifuge enrichment program, and, for 12 years, a laser enrichment programme," the report says.
"In that context, Iran has admitted that it produced small amounts of LEU using both centrifuge and laser enrichment processes, and that it had failed to report a large number of conversion, fabrication and irradiation activities involving nuclear material, including the separation of small amounts of plutonium."
Last week, Iran gave the IAEA a document that it said provided details of its nuclear weapons programme. The IAEA had given Iran until October 31 to clear up questions about its programme.
