TEHRAN, 10 February, 2021 (TON): On 9 April, 2021, the National Day of Nuclear Technology, “Iran will disclose 50 new nuclear achievements” said the top official.

Speaking on the sidelines of the inauguration of the country's second Nuclear Industry Exhibition, Ali Akbar Salehi, head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), on Tuesday termed the innovations as "might-creating".

The efforts of the AEOI's scientists, pointing to the recent launch of uranium enrichment at a 20 percent degree "within 12 hours" were admired by Salehi.

Iran resumed its uranium enrichment activities at 20 percent purity level in 2019 after the US refrained to return to its commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

It was signed between Iran and the US, the UK, Russia, France, China, and Germany.

However, the former U.S. President, Donald Trump withdrew from the nuclear deal in 2018, and Iran has also lifted JCPOA limitations on its nuclear research and development activities.
