"It's no secret that we (Iran) have the technical capabilities to produce a nuclear bomb, but there is no decision (of the country's leadership) on this matter," Kharazi said, quoted by the Qatari Al-Jazeera TV channel.

He noted that within a few days Iran was able to boost uranium enrichment from 20% to 60%, and "can easily increase this level to 90%."
