Iran 'not far' from nuclear bomb: IAEA chief tells Le Monde

Iran is not far from having an atomic bomb, the head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog was quoted as saying in a Le Monde interview published Wednesday, just hours before a visit to Tehran.

International Atomic Energy Agency head Rafael Grossi said Iran still had a way to go before getting the bomb but added: "They're not far from it, you have to acknowledge."
