Iran's hardline Paydari Front asked parliament and the Supreme National Security Council to initiate withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, Al Jazeera reported. The demand comes amid opposition within Iran to President Masoud Pezeshkian's pursuit of negotiations with Washington; it is not a government withdrawal decision.
Why it matters
The demand puts treaty withdrawal before Iranian decision-makers as U.S.-Iran negotiations continue, potentially complicating agreement on nuclear restrictions.
