Iran’s nuclear bomb debate gains ground on official platforms

Iran ·

Calls to revise Iran's nuclear doctrine and to build an atomic bomb are gaining prominence on official platforms, having first gathered momentum in hardline circles. Iran's top security official has said, however, that no change in policy has been approved.

Iran's nuclear program has been a long-running source of tension with the United States, Israel and European powers over its scope and purpose. Tehran says the program is for peaceful purposes, while Western governments have voiced concern about its uranium enrichment activities.
