Iranian Assembly of Experts calls for withdrawal from NPT, revision of defense doctrine, warns against retaliation without geographic limits.
Iran's Assembly of Experts has called for considering withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and changing the country's defense doctrine to strengthen deterrence, describing both steps as an "unavoidable necessity" and a growing national demand.
In a statement, the assembly urged Iranian officials to address these demands under the guidance of the country's leadership, as reported by the Tasnim news agency.
The assembly also warned that any renewed attack on Iran would be met with an "immediate and effective response without geographical limitations", echoing previous warnings from Iran's leadership.
It called for the establishment of a wartime economic headquarters that includes various branches of government under the supervision of the leadership to strengthen the country's defenses, while urging Iran's diplomatic apparatus to adopt a parallel approach.
