ISLAMABAD: Iran’s parliament has approved a bill to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), according to a report by Nournews.
The final decision now awaits approval from the Supreme National Security Council.
The move comes amid growing tensions between Iran and Western powers over nuclear oversight.
Suspension Signals Nuclear Standoff
The proposed legislation could limit the UN watchdog’s ability to inspect Iranian nuclear facilities.
This would likely draw criticism from the international community and further complicate diplomatic efforts.
Analysts believe the decision reflects Iran’s pushback against recent military and political pressure.
Meanwhile, Iran is dealing with domestic security concerns in its southwestern Khuzestan province.
