U.S. government offers $660 million "reward for justice" for information on stopping Iran's nuclear program

The U.S. State Department announced the Rewards for Justice (RFJ) program on the 6th, offering rewards of up to US$20 million (approximately NT$660 million) and providing personnel placement assistance in exchange for key information that can help prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. The U.S. Central Command and related departments subsequently vigorously promoted this plan to increase pressure on the Tehran regime.

The targets of this bounty program cover all aspects of Iran's nuclear program, including related key facilities or equipment, lists of scientists and related personnel involved in nuclear weapons research and development, as well as their activity trends and material flows.

The U.S. State Department emphasized that the "Rewards for Justice" program aims to protect U.S. national security and prevent terrorism and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. The United States calls on those with knowledge to provide clues through the official "Rewards for Justice" website and ensures the identity security and subsequent immigration protection of the whistleblower.

The U.S. State Department added, "The U.S. government remains committed to thwarting any attempt by Iran to develop a nuclear weapons program."

According to Deutsche Welle, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) pointed out that Iran is the only country that has not yet possessed nuclear weapons but has mastered the purity of 60% enriched uranium, and warned that the Tehran authorities continue to refine highly enriched uranium, and the international community must remain vigilant.
