Enrichment of uranium at the plant was halted in July 2004 during negotiations with European countries. In 2006, Iran announced that it would resume enrichment. In September 2007, the Iranian government announced that they had installed 3,000 centrifuges at Natanz. In 2010, the IAEA was told by the Iranian government that future enrichment programmes would take place at Natanz, and they would start in March 2011. In January 2013, Fereydoun Abbasi from the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said: "5 percent uranium enrichment is continuing at Natanz, and we will continue 20 percent enrichment at Fordo and Natanz to meet our needs". Daily inspection by the IAEA of the Natanz site was agreed as part of the nuclear enrichment reduction agreement made with the P5+1 countries in November 2013. The facilites at Natanz were one of two facilites allowed to continue under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action in April 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Natanz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
