National Interest: German intelligence: Iran is seeking weapons of mass destruction
Intelligence report says Tehran wants to source materials from Europe
Iran is looking to develop weapons of mass destruction and source materials from Europe, a German intelligence report said.
Tehran denies it wants a nuclear weapon and is attending talks in Vienna aimed at restoring the limits on its nuclear activity that it agreed to in 2015.
But the report by Bavaria’s Office for the Protection of the Constitution names Iran as one of several countries, along with North Korea and Syria, seeking to develop a stock of destructive weapons.
They are “endeavouring to expand their conventional weapons arsenals through the production, or constant modernisation, of weapons of mass destruction,” the report said.
“In order to obtain the necessary know-how and materials, these states are trying to forge contacts with businesses in high-tech countries such as Germany.”
