It remains the Government’s policy not to comment on the detail of the nuclear negotiations while they are continuing. We - and our partners - recognise the impact of advanced centrifuges on our objective of extending the time it would take Iran to acquire nuclear material for a weapon to at least a year; and have factored this into our approach to the negotiations.
