STOCKHOLM, Sweden - Former chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix said Thursday it would take many years for Iran to achieve the capability to produce highly enriched uranium needed for an atomic bomb.
Blix also dismissed worries about a new nuclear reactor being built in Iran, saying it was not suitable to produce weapons-grade material.
“They have many years to go before they will be able to produce highly enriched uranium for a bomb and I believe there is plenty of room for negotiations,” Blix said in an interview with Swedish Radio.
