Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : In the days when Iran was more cooperative with the IAEA, monitoring equipment would have picked up the increased enrichment level.
54% : Between now and then, it seems that the agency's director-general, Rafael Grossi, is likely to make a trip to Tehran.
52% : In what seems like a fast-paced Broadway thriller (or perhaps farce), yesterday the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna shared its latest report on Iran with the countries on its governing body, as well as allowing selected journalists to read the report and take notes, but not take away.
44% : But last Sunday, CIA Director William Burns told CBS News' "Face the Nation" that while Iran may be only "a matter of weeks" from acquiring such high enriched uranium, "we don't believe that the Supreme Leader in Iran (Ali Khamenei) has yet made a decision to resume the weaponization program that we judge they suspended or stopped at the end of 2023."
40% :Then yesterday, Undersecretary for Defense for Policy Colin Kahl told a congressional committee that Iran could make enough fissile material (highly-enriched uranium) for one nuclear bomb in "about 12 days."
31% : There is also the prospect of a second report emerging, examining the progress of a separate investigation into three sites in Iran where inspectors found traces of uranium in a man-processed state for which Iran had no convincing explanation.
