I've Been Thinking:

Iran announced that they have successfully enriched 77pound of uranium to 60% purity.

There is no reason to question the veracity of the announcement. Although Iran often lies and exaggerates, in this case, the announcement reflects a reality that is more than plausible.

The announcement comes on the eve of renewed talks, to take place in Vienna, between Iran and the P5+1. The West, especially the United States, hopes that this round of talks will result in a return to the famous Iranian nuke deal that President Trump pulled out of in 2018.

Here is the problem, and it is the very reason that Iran’s uranium announcement is probably truthful: It is very hard to walk back scientific technology.

Iran has the capability to enrich uranium to 60%. They will not go back to the 3.65% which is stipulated in the original agreement.

This is the exact quote from Behrouz Kamalvandi, spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran: "So far we have produced 25 kilograms of 60% uranium, which, except for countries with nuclear weapons, no other country is able to produce.”

I would say that the P5+1 are walking straight into an Iranian diplomatic trap.
