IRANIAN President Hassan Rouhani today rejected a Bill passed by parliament that would suspend United Nations inspections of nuclear facilities and boost uranium enrichment.
The resolution was moved and approved amid anger among MPs at the murder of nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh on the outskirts of Tehran last week, almost certainly by Israeli agents.
An end to UN inspections and enriching uranium to 20 per cent, as called for by the resolution, would further violate the terms of the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) – better known as the Iran nuclear deal – monitoring Iran’s development of nuclear energy, which it says is only intended for civilian use.
