Even though the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) had made the first of these revelations in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/archive\/opinions\/1991\/06\/26\/beijings-tehran-connection\/371737c9-fbcc-4906-82c5-b687cc0aca72\/\">early 1990s<\/a>, it took the International Atomic Energy Agency another decade to take action.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Throughout the last three decades, a network of brave people inside Iran, even among the regime\u2019s ranks or the most sensitive decision-making centers, risked their lives to collect and provide the organized resistance group, the Mujahedin-e-Khalq Organization (MEK\/PMOI) with intelligence, which was critical in enabling the most lethal dictator in Iran\u2019s history and the biggest state sponsor of global terrorism to acquire the deadliest weapons of mass destruction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Through its offices in Europe and North America, the NCRI publicly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/exclusive-report\/timeline-of-ncris-revelations-to-prevent-a-nuclear-armed-iran\/\">shared the information<\/a> with the world, even though some particular parties insisted to ignore or even question the regime about the findings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Unlike the decision-makers in Tehran, their counterparts with veto power in the United Nations Security Council didn\u2019t seem to have the same determination. Since 2002, the regime has continued to drag its feet and stonewall the negotiations, while the P5+1 kept coming up with new initiatives and goodwill gestures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The NCRI also continued to warn the world about Tehran\u2019s deception tactics. On September 10, 2004, at a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.iranwatch.org\/library\/ncri-new-nuclear-revelations-9-10-04\">press conference in Paris<\/a>, the NCRI Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Mohammad Mohaddessin revealed information about a secret meeting at the highest levels of the regime, where Khamenei appointed a team run by Hassan Rouhani with the task of deceiving the international community and preventing disclosures until they achieve the necessary nuclear technology for a bomb.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">On December 2, 2015, The NCRI disclosed the Iranian\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/exclusive-report\/timeline-of-ncris-revelations-to-prevent-a-nuclear-armed-iran\/ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/nuclear\/iran-regime-s-secret-committee-to-deceive-iaea-on-pmd-probe-revealed\/\">regime\u2019s secret committee<\/a> deceived IAEA on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncrius.org\/topics\/iran-deceives-iaea-on-pmd.html\">PMD Probe<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">But the world didn\u2019t need NCRI\u2019s word for that.

This hole has calandria tubes leading into it where the fuel passes through. We had purchased similar tubes, but I could not announce it at the time. Only one person in Iran knew about it, and we only reported to the state\u2019s highest senior official [Khamenei]. No one else knew. Since our friends were in negotiations, we knew that the other party would go against their word one day. [Khamenei] had said to be careful and these people do not keep their word. So, we needed to carry out our measures with a certain awareness, meaning in addition to not severing any ties, we also needed to establish paths for a quick return if necessary. There were some tubes, with a diameter of two to three centimeters and three to four meters long. We had purchased the same number of similar tubes. They said fill those tubes with cement. And we did. -Did the IAEA instruct you to do so? -No, during the nuclear negotiations. We said fine, we will pour them with cement. However, we never said we had other tubes because if we did [the P5+1] would say pour them with cement, too. And now we have these tubes.

He said: \u201cOnce, the Americans would say that they won\u2019t enter the negotiations until Iran suspends (uranium enrichment). But then they were forced to retreat and despite our refusal to suspend, they did enter the negotiations. Also, they argued that they won\u2019t discuss sanctions (relief) if we do not suspend enrichment. Again, they were forced to do it anyway. They had a set of retreats until the Almaty 1 session.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cDuring those years, a good portion of time, we wanted to disrupt our adversaries\u2019 assessment,\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aparat.com\/v\/gUP9W\/%D8%B1%D9%88_%D8%AF%D8%B1_%D8%B1%D9%88_%D8%A8%D8%A7_%D8%B9%D9%84%DB%8C_%D8%A8%D8%A7%D9%82%D8%B1%DB%8C?t=2135\">Bagheri Kani told Ofogh TV<\/a> in 2019. \u201cTo make this happen, we needed more time.

Timecodes: Iran nuclear deal 0:00 Mosen Fakhrizadeh 4:07 Iran&#039;s disinformation campaign against MEK 5:08 Mahmoud Alavi: Right now, Iran is in no need of the U.S. to return to the JCPOA and is not waiting for the U.S. What can they do, that they have not done already in the face of Iran decreasing its JCPOA obligations, 20 percent enrichment and other such measures? Sanctions are their tools. They imposed maximum sanctions, which they continued to the very end and got no results. Trump\u2019s sanctions imposed enormous pressure on our people. However, it was an opportunity for our nuclear industry, because in the nuclear field we could have taken some measures and the world would condemned us. However, with Trump exiting the JCPOA we decreased our obligations according to the JCPOA and enjoyed international justification. The world gave us the right to do so and when the U.S. unilaterally exits the deal, Iran also has the right to decrease its JCPOA commitments. With the JCPOA we were able to import 450 tons of yellow cake for the 20 percent enriched uranium that we had. Yellow cake for the nuclear industry is like crude oil for oil refineries, meaning we now have yellow cake for our nuclear initiatives for many years to come. Based on the JCPOA we had the right to continue research and development. During this R&amp;D we were able to achieve very important scientific and technological advances. Day by day our abilities increased, we had new developments and they needed to be tested to become operational. The U.S. exiting the JCPOA and Iran decreasing its JCPOA commitments gave us this opportunity to test them. The JCPOA did not destroy our nuclear industry. It decreased to some extent in volume, but in quality we made advances. We displayed that when the Supreme Leader ordered 20 percent enrichment many people thought do we still have a nuclear industry to carry out 20 percent enrichment? The day that we decided to follow the Supreme Leader\u2019s orders to launch 20 percent enrichment, we actually did, and our nuclear capabilities are maintained, continuing its work with determination. During the research and development, we were able to launch the production of IR-6 centrifuges and make them operational. Each IR-6 has ten times the performance rate of old centrifuges and takes up less space while being more proficient. Our nuclear program is a peaceful program and the supreme leader clearly said in his fatwa that producing nuclear weapons is against religious law, and the Islamic Republic will not pursue it and considers it forbidden. But let me tell you, if you corner a cat it might behave differently than a cat roaming free. If they push Iran in that direction, it would not be Iran\u2019s fault but the fault of those who pushed Iran, and Iran does not pursue such a plan in normal. This claim that they are making is illogical, that Iran stops decreasing its obligations. They need to return to square one, and then we need to verify. They should know that such language falls on deaf ears in Iran. The only solution before the U.S. is to lift all sanctions in one step, meaning cancelling them and not just suspending them. They need to return to the deal for Iran to return to deal and live up to its obligations. Two hours after Fakhrizadeh\u2019s death they began chanting slogans against the Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) without knowing the Ministry\u2019s role in this regard. These slogans stopped the next day. Why? Because they realized the MOIS had reported two months before the incident that the enemy was active in those areas and they are gathering intelligence. Five days prior to the incident the MOIS said the enemy has plans to kill Fakhrizadeh at that spot. Only the timing was not clear. The individual who provided the first means of killing Fakhrizadeh was from within the armed forces, and we cannot conduct intelligence gathering among the armed forces. We asked them to send a representative to work with us on this issue. Unfortunately, this incident took place before a representative was introduced for us to work on this issue. Given my experience in the ministry, we were involved in movies and series to educate the public, protect the public against espionage, and reach our intelligence goals.
