Russia emphasized the importance of Iran remaining within the Non-Proliferation Treaty and not withdrawing from it.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stressed today, Tuesday, that Russia does not want Iran to withdraw from the Non-Proliferation Treaty and relies on its continued participation in it.

Dmitry also considered that the statements of some Iranian officials about the possibility of withdrawing from the treaty, which obliges Tehran not to develop or possess nuclear weapons, need clarification.

Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran and advisor to the Supreme Leader, indicated a few days ago that his country is considering the possibility of withdrawing from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in response to pressure and escalation from the United States and Israel, noting that a final decision has not yet been made and depends on Washington's behavior.
