Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% :"Iran informed the agency that 'unintended fluctuations' in enrichment levels may have occurred during the transition period," the IAEA report said.
48% : The confidential quarterly report by the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) distributed to member states is likely to renew tensions between Iran and the West over its programme.
44% :"Discussions between the agency and Iran to clarify the matter are ongoing."
43% : While the IAEA's director-general has warned Iran now has enough uranium to produce "several" nuclear bombs if it chooses, it would be likely to take months more to build a weapon and potentially miniaturise it to put it on a missile.
42% : "To the best of our knowledge, we don't believe that the supreme leader in Iran has yet made a decision to resume the weaponisation programme that we judge they suspended or stopped at the end of 2003," CIA director Williams Burns told CBS's Face The Nation programme.
41% : The US's unilateral withdraw from the accord in 2018 set in motion a series of attacks and escalations by Tehran over its programme.
40% : The IAEA report, which only speaks about "particles", suggests that Iran is not building a stockpile of uranium enriched above 60% - the level it has been enriching at for some time.
39% : Uranium at 84% is nearly at weapons-grade levels of 90% - meaning any stockpile of that material could be quickly used to produce an atomic bomb if Iran chooses.
35% :Speaking in Berlin, Israel's visiting foreign minister Eli Cohen pointed to two options to deal with Iran - using a so-called "snapback" mechanism in the Security Council resolution that enshrined the 2015 nuclear deal to reimpose UN sanctions, and "to have a credible military option on the table as well".
34% : The US intelligence community, as recently as this past weekend, has maintained its assessment that Iran is not pursuing an atomic bomb.
34% : Already, Israel's recently reinstalled Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has threatened military actions against Tehran.
32% : And Israel and Iran have been engaged in a high-stakes shadow war across the wider Middle East since the nuclear deal's collapse.
31% :Iran has been producing uranium enriched to 60% purity - a level for which non-proliferation experts already say Tehran has no civilian use.
31% : Meanwhile on Tuesday, Germany's foreign minister said both her country and Israel are worried about the allegations facing Iran over the reported 84% enriched uranium.
