Tehran Spins It All to Its Advantage Against the West
[Times-UK] Bronwen Maddox - Iran has again proved world-class at spinning the West's red lines and deadlines into more months in which to move its nuclear work forward. "This is an ongoing contest and we're in round, oh, about 147 in an open-ended bout," said Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. "We honestly need to understand that these technologies are being disseminated to the point that a country wanting to have a breakout capability [can do so] or can create a structure so confusing we can't tell if it's complying or not." The West has a promise without numbers. Tehran has a few solid more months to spin its uranium centrifuges.
