Iranian legislator Seyyed Mahmoud Nabavian has called for Iran to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and change its nuclear doctrine, adding to similar demands from lawmakers and public figures.
– “Now that we have paid the heavy costs of war and sanctions, it is time for the Iranian nation to withdraw from the NPT treaty and change the nuclear doctrine,” he wrote on X.
– In parliament, Ebrahim Rezaei, a member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, said 10 proposals to withdraw from the treaty had been registered, and withdrawal was under consideration, according to the Fars news agency.
– Mohammad Javad Haj Ali Akbari, an Iranian politician and cleric, also called for a review of Iran’s nuclear doctrine, describing it as a “national demand” during his sermon on Friday, state broadcaster IRIB reported.
– He said the demand was not a hasty or emotional reaction, but reflected Iranians’ awareness of what he described as US failures to honour its commitments.
