Abbas Golro, a member of the National Security Committee of the Islamic Council, said on Tuesday, November 10, that Iran's continued participation in the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) is not in the country's interest.
This MP argued that withdrawal from this treaty had become a national demand.
However, Golero said that in order to withdraw from the NPT, the security and international dimensions of the case must be taken into account and the "deterrence level" must be raised sufficiently before taking action.
Some officials in the Islamic Republic say that due to the bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities in two waves of war, the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty has lost its legal function.
