Experts warn Iran could have a nuclear bomb before the next president takes office

Iran is closer to becoming a nuclear-armed power than much of the world realizes, according to a nonpartisan research group’s new report.

The FDD published a strategic plan, "Deterring Iran's Dash to a Nuclear Bomb," with two dozen specific recommendations they say the Biden administration needs to quickly change the tides on Iran’s nuclear capabilities. 

"Unless the Biden-Harris administration takes robust steps now to deter and hinder those advances, Iran could complete a crude nuclear bomb before the next U.S. president is inaugurated," the plan’s co-author, Orde Kittrie, said.

The report demanded the Biden administration declassify all intelligence assessments related to Iran’s nuclear program to build up domestic and international pressure to deter Iran.
