Implications of the Recent Deal with Iran on Getting Controls on Civilian Nuclear Fuel Cycles In an op-ed published on the Hiroshima Report Blog of the Center for the Promotion of Disarmament and Non-Proliferation in Japan, FAS President Dr. Charles Ferguson takes a look at one of the largest challenges to nonproliferation: how states can walk up to the line of crossing into nuclear weapons capability by developing uranium enrichment plants or reprocessing plants. Both of these technologies are dual-use in that the same enrichment plant can be used to make low-enriched uranium useful for fueling peaceful nuclear reactors or to further enrich to high enough concentrations of the fissile isotope uranium-235 useful for powering nuclear weapons. Very few non-nuclear weapon states have one or both of these technologies; the one non-nuclear weapon country that has both enrichment and reprocessing is Japan. Could the new deal with Iran have implications for Japan and other non-nuclear weapon states like South Korea that aspire to acquire enrichment or reprocessing capabilities? The answer is yes. Read the op-ed here.
