Supreme Leader's Nuclear Stance Revealed
A report reveals that U.S. intelligence agencies see Iran's new Supreme Leader, Ebrahim Raisi, as more interested than his predecessor in acquiring nuclear weapons. He supports the development of a small nuclear warhead that can be miniaturized for use on long-range missiles. Although he has pledged to preserve Iran's nuclear capabilities, he has not explicitly spoken about the necessity of possessing nuclear weapons. His father’s fatwa prohibits the use of nuclear arms, but more hardline elements within the government are pushing to develop advanced nuclear capabilities. The reports indicate that Iran has moved its centrifuge machines to fortified facilities to ensure the continuation of enrichment activities. Despite U.S. strikes on nuclear sites last year that slowed Iran's nuclear progress, they did not halt it entirely, and Iran still maintains a stockpile of highly enriched uranium. U.S. officials are considering the possibility of escalating the Iranian nuclear threat, especially given the influence of hardline leaders within Iran. The "Mount Fas" location in the center of the country remains a difficult target due to its depth, with a growing possibility that Iran is increasing its efforts to acquire nuclear weapons as a deterrent against potential attacks.
