Iranian Official: Iran One Month Away From Joining "Nuclear Club"

Ynet reports that "Iranian Atomic Energy deputy chief Behzat Sultani said Tuesday that the Islamic Republic will join the 'nuclear club' within one month and added, 'No country will consider attacking it after that.' He provided no further details. Sultani added that 70% of the Arak nuclear reactor has been completed."

Reuters reports that U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates was asked about this and said: "I don't believe it."

"I think that most estimates that I've seen, haven't changed since the last time we talked about it, which is probably at least a year, and maybe more," Gates told reporters on a flight to South America. Tweet
