Amidst the ongoing war in the Middle East, Iran is going to take such a step which will give sleep to both America and Israel. US President Donald Trump has been repeatedly saying that Iran was attacked because it was close to making nuclear weapons, which posed a threat to Washington. At the same time, there is a discussion going on in the Parliament of Iran to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). This decision will mean that Iran will be free to develop nuclear weapons.
Iran is considering exiting NPT
Exiting the NPT would mean that International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) monitoring of Iran would end and sanctions preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons would be lifted. The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson has said that the government is considering the matter and a decision will be taken soon. This step of Iran is being considered a major threat to regional security and has increased concern in the international community. Iran’s decision to withdraw from the NPT would mean that it would be free to develop nuclear weapons.
Iran’s statement regarding making nuclear weapons
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baghai said on Monday (30 March 2026), what is the use of joining such a treaty, in which we are put under pressure at the international level and do not allow us to take advantage of our rights. Not only this, they also attack our nuclear installations. However, he clarified that Iran had neither tried to make nuclear weapons for the first time nor will it do so in the future. Iran says it is not trying to make nuclear weapons, but it is reviewing its position on the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Last year America targeted nuclear sites
After the 12-day conflict in June last year, Iranian lawmakers also discussed the option of withdrawing from the NPT, due to which Israel and the US attacked it. Then Iran’s three major nuclear sites, Fordow Uranium Plant, Natanz Nuclear Plant and Isfahan were targeted.
The four nuclear weapon states India, Pakistan, Israel and North Korea are not part of the NPT framework. Of these, India, Pakistan, Israel and South Sudan have never signed the treaty, while North Korea previously joined but withdrew in 2003.
