CIA Director Bill Burns confirmed that Iran is now able to enrich uranium by 90% within week.

At the same time, however, he saw that Tehran had not yet decided to militarize its nuclear program, saying in an interview with CBS News broadcast today, "We do not believe that the Iranian leader has taken a decision to resume the militarization of his country's nuclear program

He pointed out that the development of its ballistic missile program is also continuing in full swing, pointing out that these actions exacerbate international concerns

As for the possibility that China would send military aid to Russia for use in the war in Ukraine, he said: "We are confident that the Chinese leadership is considering providing lethal equipment" to the Russian forces. He urged China to evaluate the consequences if it supplied Russia with weapons

However, he made it clear that Beijing had not yet taken a decision to transfer military aid to Russia. "We don't see a final decision made yet , and we don't see evidence of actual shipments of lethal equipment, " he said

These warnings come amid numerous intelligence information that previously reported Beijing's readiness to support Moscow with weapons and marches, which could upset the course of the ongoing war between the Russian and Ukrainian forces since February 24, amid great Western military support for Kiev to confront the Russians
