但伊朗没有浓缩铀的权利。事实上，特朗普期望德黑兰永远放弃其浓缩计划是正确的。
要理解其中的原因，请考虑一下科学。 Uranium enrichment and plutonium reprocessing (sometimes referred to as ENR) are dual-use technologies.用于制造核反应堆燃料的过程也可用于制造核弹燃料。因此，一旦一个国家能够浓缩铀（或后处理钚），它也就具备了成为拥核国家的关键能力。
Scientists and policymakers have understood this problem since the dawn of the nuclear age and devised a simple solution: fuel-cycle services.各国不需要自己制造核燃料。 If they want a truly peaceful nuclear program (for energy, research, or medical purposes), then they can have fuel prov
