Iran’s Parliament approved a bill on Wednesday to suspend cooperation with the UN Nuclear Control Agency, the State affiliated with State NourNews reported.
The measure, which needs the final approval of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran to apply, according to NourNews, follows an air war with Israel in which his lifelong enemy said he wanted to prevent Tehran from developing a nuclear weapon.
The president of Parliament, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, was summoned by state media as well as saying they would accelerate their civil nuclear program.
Tehran denies having sought nuclear weapons and says that a resolution adopted this month by the International Atomic Energy Agency (OIEA) that declares Iran in breach of its non -proliferation obligations raided the way for Israel’s attacks.

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, justified the bombardment of key Iranian nuclear facilities in stating that Iran was dangerously close to developing a nuclear weapon.

The speaker was summoned by saying that the OIEA had even refused to condemn the attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities and “has put its international credibility for sale.”
He said that “for this reason, Iran’s atomic energy organization will suspend its cooperation with the agency until the safety of nuclear facilities is guaranteed, and will move at a faster rate with the country’s peaceful nuclear program.”
Earlier this week, the National Security Committee of the Iranian Parliament approved the general scheme of the bill and the Committee spokesman Ebrahim Rezaei said that the bill would suspend the installation of surveillance, inspections and presentation chambers to the IAEA.
After the Israeli attacks in their nuclear sites and the American bombardment of Iranian underground nuclear facilities over the weekend, the Iranian government also faces calls to limit the country’s commitments with the nuclear non -proliferation regime.
In an interview with Al-Aaby Al-Jadeed by Qatar, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said: “I think our opinion on our nuclear program and the non-proliferation regime will witness changes, but it is not possible to say in what direction.”
