Iran’s Assembly of Experts Calls for Review of Withdrawal from NPT

Iran’s Assembly of Experts on 12 December called on relevant authorities to consider withdrawing from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and to reassess the country’s defense strategy. The assembly said repeated threats against Iran’s nuclear capabilities showed Tehran could no longer place hope in the responsible international bodies, and warned that any renewed attack would be met with a swift, effective response not limited by geography.

This is a signal from a clerical body rather than a decision by the authorities that actually control nuclear policy, so its weight lies in the direction of travel it reveals: the argument that international institutions offer no protection is being made openly at a senior level. The practical effect is to widen the range of options Tehran can be seen to entertain, which matters most for the parties still trying to keep the file inside diplomatic channels. Whether the call translates into formal action, or remains a pressure lever, is the open question worth watching.
