The Big Picture:
Iran has upheld This permanent and clear commitment, even after the United States unilaterally withdrew from the JCPOA in 2018.
Iran was one of the original 62 signatories to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), the most important global treaty on the world’s deadliest weapon. It went into effect in 1970 and has been the standard of nuclear arms control ever since.
What He Is Saying:
Abbas Araghchi wrote on his X account: “It is impudent to preach to Iranians that they must ‘make it clear once and for all’ they will stop having nuclear weapons.”
He stressed that Iran’s long-standing commitment to the global non-proliferation treaty for weapons of mass destruction is clear to everyone.
Key Points:
- Araghchi stressed Iran has consistently stated that it will never, under any circumstances, seek to produce or acquire nuclear weapons.
- Araghchi: Tehran has continuously committed to the global non-proliferation treaty for weapons of mass destruction, which is clear to everyone
