Thats mostly for public consumption. The real work is been done in underground facilities. The "older" type centrifuges that are spinning in cascades of 164, of which it is officially confirmed at about 3.000 should not be taken lightly. Its more likely that the "Fiddler Scientists" have over 5.000. The IR-2, which has some locally made pieces, will make a difference, since they spin faster. As for the timing, Fiddler leader Armadillio Jad statements are meant to keep the world press constantly at attention and totally fascinated by this rather "stale and well known news update" vis a vis "The Great Expansion Program" !
