Jordan Has Right to Develop, Enrich Uranium Deposits, U.S. Official Says

Jordan can proceed with uranium enrichment, U.S. official says
Nations including Jordan "have the right" to access and enrich uranium reserves for peaceful intentions, said U.S. Undersecretary for Nuclear Security Thomas D'Agostino. Speaking to reporters in Austria, D'Agostino said the U.S. seeks to propose low-cost options to countries that plan uranium-enrichment projects. "We are not trying to tell other nations that you can't have enrichment," he added. Bloomberg
