Iranian Website Reports U.S. Giving Ground on Nuclear Centrifuges
(Los Angeles Times) Paul Richter and Ramin Mostaghim - The Obama administration has agreed to allow Iran to operate 6,000 centrifuges to enrich uranium, up from a proposed ceiling of 4,000 reported two weeks ago, as part of negotiations for a nuclear deal, according to a website approved by the Iranian government. The Iranian website said the Obama administration has repeatedly given ground on the centrifuge count, starting early this year with a ceiling of 500 centrifuges, then being raised in negotiations to 1,500 and then 4,000. The Persian-language irannuc.ir website is closely aligned with Iran's foreign ministry and national nuclear organization.
