The U.S. Department of State confirmed that the Iranian nuclear program continues to pose a threat to international peace, in light of the Iranian regime's ongoing failure to comply with the conditions of the International Atomic Energy Agency and its repeated attempts to conceal its endeavors to obtain a nuclear weapon. According to Chapter Five of a recent report issued by the U.S. Department of State on Iran, Tehran's nuclear program has been a source of great concern to the international community since its secret nuclear activities were first disclosed in 2002. The report notes that uranium enrichment capabilities being currently possessed by Iran, violate the terms of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, yet the Iranian regimes is expanding these capabilities day by day and seeks to use them as tools for nuclear blackmail. --More 02:17 LOCAL TIME 23:17 GMT 0021 www.spa.gov.sa/2138542
