TEHRAN: If the US Congress imposes fresh sanctions on Tehran, the Iranian parliament (Majlis) will retaliate by adopting a bill to further expand the country’s nuclear enrichment level, said Iranian foreign minister.
The Iranian lawmakers “will adopt something requiring the government to increase our (uranium) enrichment,” Press TV reported cining Mohammad Javad Zarif while stating during a panel discussion at the World Economic Forum in the Swiss city of Davos Friday.
Anyone who torpedoes the November 2013 interim nuclear agreement between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries — the US, France, Britain, Russia, China plus Germany — “should be isolated by the international community, even if it is the US Congress,” the Iranian minister added.
Zarif also noted that there is “a very good probability” to reach a comprehensive agreement over Iran’s nuclear program.
“We have an agreement that has the prospect of reaching a comprehensive agreement,” he said, adding, “Now it’s the time for the international community to stand firm against a process that will unravel an extremely important achievement.” (IANS)
Rejecting claims that sanctions have forced Iran to the negotiating table, Zarif expressed that the country’s desire to “change our dynamics” in relations with other countries was the driving force for the talks. (IANS)
