Iran Unveils Nuclear Advancements on National Technology Day

Iran celebrated National Nuclear Technology Day by showcasing significant advancements in its nuclear sector, with President Masoud Pezeshkian attending an exhibition that highlighted six key achievements. The exhibition, hosted by the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, was divided into three sections: the nuclear fuel cycle, energy generation, and peaceful applications of nuclear technology. Key displays included progress in the construction of Units 2 and 3 of the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant and various innovations in producing heavy water, radiopharmaceuticals, and applications of radiation in medicine and agriculture. Despite ongoing sanctions, Iranian officials emphasized the country's commitment to peaceful nuclear technology. In conjunction with these celebrations, Pezeshkian reiterated Iran's stance that it is not pursuing nuclear weapons, suggesting a willingness for direct American investment if diplomatic negotiations succeed. This dual approach highlights Iran's focus on technological advancement while navigating complex international relations.
