U.S.: Iranian Enrichment to 90 Percent "Would Be a Provocative Act"
(State Department) State Department Deputy Spokesperson Jalina Porter briefed the press in Washington on Monday. Q: "There is a report that Israel shared intelligence with the U.S. suggesting Iran is taking steps to enrich uranium to 90% purity." Porter: "The enrichment to 90% obviously would be a provocative act....We've made clear that Iran's continued nuclear escalations are unconstructive and they're also inconsistent with...the goal of returning to a mutual compliance with the JCPOA. Of course, they won't provide Iran any negotiating leverage...in the talks."
