White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs issued the following statement Sunday regarding reports that Iran plans to build 10 new uranium enrichment facilities. Here’s the full text:

“If true, this would be yet another serious violation of Iran’s clear obligations under multiple UN security council resolutions, and another example of Iran choosing to isolate itself. The international community has made clear that Iran has rights, but with those rights come responsibilities. As the overwhelming IAEA board of governors vote made clear, time is running out for Iran to address the international community’s growing concerns about its nuclear program.”
