.MaddowBlog: Iran spins more centrifuges, making Pres. Trump’s failure more obvious.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin spoke at a media briefing in September and argued that he, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and Donald Trump are “completely aligned on our ‘maximum pressure’ campaign” against Iran. Mnuchin added that the policy is “absolutely working.”
The decision to operate 60 IR-6 advanced centrifuges means that the country can produce enriched uranium 10 times as fast as the first-generation IR-1s allowed under the accord. By starting up these advanced centrifuges, Iran further cuts into the one-year time limit that experts estimate Tehran would need to have enough material to build a nuclear weapon, if it chose to pursue one.
As Colin Kahl, an Obama administration veteran, recently explained, ”Trump’s ‘maximum pressure’ campaign was supposed to induce Iran to scrap its nuclear program . Instead, Trump’s actions have incentivized Iran to restart it, creating a completely unnecessary crisis.”
