Commenting on reports that Iran has notified the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) of its intention to install advanced centrifuges at its plant in Natanz, a Foreign and Commonwealth Office spokesperson said:
Iran’s intention to install more advanced centrifuges (type IR-2M) at its Fuel Enrichment Plant in Natanz is a cause for deep concern. Installation of these centrifuges would be a further breach of UN Security Council and IAEA Board resolutions. We urge Iran to respect these resolutions and cooperate fully with the IAEA.
