Iran 'could still produce nuclear weapons'

Iran has made enough headway in 18 years of concealed activity to be able to produce nuclear weapons before the end of the decade, even if its facilities are opened to international inspection, a senior US official has said.

Iran has been able to confuse the International Atomic Energy Agency with partial disclosures that will keep the agency from referring Iran’s program to the UN Security Council this month for possible sanctions, the official told The Associated Press.
