Jaber Rajabi, a political analyst, in response to the request of the Council of Leadership Experts to examine the withdrawal of the Islamic Republic from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and to change the defense doctrine, said that these positions, in addition to an attempt to increase bargaining power in the negotiations, are a reflection of the competition between the joint force of the IRG and the great power.
Rajavi added that the authorities of the Islamic Republic of Iran think that acquiring nuclear weapons, like the North Korean model, can deter them. However, according to him, making such threats could backfire and increase the likelihood of a military conflict and the entry of more countries into the war.
