Iranian Foreign Ministry commented on the possibility of the country withdrawing from the NPT

Iran remains a party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and is aware of its obligations under the agreement. This was announced by the official representative of the Iranian Foreign Ministry Ismail Baghai, the IRNA Telegram channel reports.

He noted that the issue of Iran's possible withdrawal from the treaty is being seriously discussed in the country's political and expert circles. Iran has been a party to the NPT since 1970 and believes it has fully complied with its obligations under the treaty, despite military attacks on the country, killings of scientists and strikes on nuclear facilities, Baghea said.

A representative of the Iranian Foreign Ministry said that a state participating in the treaty should be able to enjoy its benefits and exercise its rights, and not be constantly subjected to pressure, threats and military attacks.

Baghei added that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will follow the decisions of the competent authorities of the country.
