Today, Iran's Assembly of Experts issued an unprecedented statement calling for withdrawal from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).
"Considering the issue of withdrawing from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, revising the country's defense doctrine and creating the necessary deterrence have become an unavoidable necessity and have become a public and national need.
We hope that officials, under the wise guidance of the dear supreme leader, will respond to this need."
