There are many reasons to believe that the Iranian regime would seek nuclear weapons despite the weak and porous agreement it signed with world powers in 2015. The latest manifestation of this reality is the revelations made by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), which pertain to Tehran continuing its bomb-building efforts despite its explicit commitments to the international community.
According to the NCRI, the Organization of Defensive Innovation and Research (known by the Persian acronym SPND), the body responsible for designing nuclear bombs, has been continuing and expanding its work even after the nuclear agreement came into effect last year.
The existence of the SPND was first revealed by the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) in 2011 and was later placed under sanctions by the U.S. State Department for its role in developing Iran's illicit nuclear program
