Published documentation also stated participants of the April 2009 meeting had agreed Iran is in need of 1.5 tons of low enriched uranium to build a basic bomb.

British officials present in the meeting have predicted, by 2014 Iran will have produced 20 tons of low enriched uranium, and in the event of extended production, which is enough to build 19 nuclear warheads.

In this regard The Guardian wrote British official have also agreed in the event of continuation of technical problems at Natanz nuclear database in 2010 which was caused by a major virus and other problems, the weight of enriched uranium production in Iran must be much less than the predicted amount in 2009.

Also, in a world wide attempt in 2008 United States has tried to prevent Iran from acquiring steel firm called “Steel Marging” and fiber carbon which are essential substances in enrichment of uranium, but the degree of this plan’s success in unavailable.
