Iran advises NATO exit over US sanctions
An Iranian official affirmed that the best response to U.S. President Donald Trump's escalation of the economic war is for Iran to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. The Iranian Parliament had previously discussed a proposal in March to withdraw from the treaty, which Iran considers unnecessary, despite it recognizing a nation's right to peaceful nuclear energy in exchange for commitments not to develop nuclear weapons and to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency. Since its ratification in 1970, the treaty has been part of Iran’s nuclear strategy, and the decision to withdraw is seen as a reaction to Washington’s intensified hostility towards Iran.
