U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized the urgent need to address Iran’s nuclear ambitions, warning that the Islamic Republic is dangerously close to developing a nuclear weapon due to its expanding uranium enrichment activities.
During an appearance on “Hannity” Thursday, Rubio revealed that NATO members will commit to a defense spending target of 5% of GDP over the next decade by the June 2025 NATO Summit, citing escalating global security concerns.
Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, U.S. and Iranian negotiators have engaged in four rounds of discussions, primarily in Oman, to tackle Iran’s nuclear program.
According to a March report by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N.’s nuclear watchdog, Iran’s stockpile of 60% enriched uranium surged from 182 kg to 275 kg (roughly 401 to 606 pounds) in early 2025.
“Once you’re at 60, you’re 90% of the way there. You are, in essence, a threshold nuclear weapons state, which is what Iran basically has become,” Rubio said in an interview from Turkey.
“They are at the threshold of a nuclear weapon. If they decided to do so, they could do so very quickly. If they stockpile enough of that 60 percent enriched, they could very quickly turn it into 90 and weaponize it. That’s the danger we face right now. That’s the urgency here.”
He added: “They are fairly close. Too close for comfort, to a nuclear weapon.”
In Qatar, Trump informed reporters that the U.S. is nearing a nuclear agreement with Iran.
“Iran has sort of agreed to the terms,” he said, stressing that Iran must never be permitted to possess a nuclear weapon.
The New York Times reported that Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, speaking at a book-signing event in Tehran on Thursday, declared Iran’s unwavering commitment to its civilian nuclear energy program. “None of our nuclear enrichment facilities will be dismantled,” he said, according to the outlet.
In February, the White House launched a “maximum pressure” strategy targeting Iran’s nuclear activities, ballistic missile program, and support for regional proxies that threaten American interests.
Speaking to Fox News host Sean Hannity, Rubio expressed Trump’s desire for Iran to embrace peace and prosperity.
“In the end, the decision lies in the hands of one person, and that’s the supreme leader in Iran, and I hope he chooses the path of peace and prosperity, not a destructive path, and we’ll see how that plays out,” he said.
