Tehran-SANA
The Islamic Consultative Assembly of Iran today ratified the outlines of the Law (Strategic Procedure for Abolishing Sanctions).
During the open meeting of the Council, and after discussing the broad outlines of the law, the deputies, by a majority of those present, approved it, which obliges the government to implement its provisions.
The law requires the Atomic Energy Organization to produce at least 120 kilograms of uranium by enriching 20 percent annually at the Fordow facility and storing it within two months of the start of the adoption of this law.
The law also stipulates the commitment of the Atomic Energy Organization to commence the installation and injection of gas, enrichment and storage of materials to the appropriate degree of enrichment within 3 months, with at least 1,000 centrifuges at the Natanz facility, and the redesign and improvement of the 40-megawatt heavy water reactor in Arak.
The law includes an obligation for the government to suspend the supervisory access of IAEA inspectors to Iranian sites until after the Additional Protocol under the agreement within two months of the enactment of this law in addition to an obligation to suspend the voluntary implementation of the additional protocol if Iranian banking relations in Europe and the amount of its oil purchases no longer return from Iran to normal and satisfactory conditions 3 months after its adoption.
The law indicates that if the counterparties in the nuclear deal returned to fulfill their obligations 3 months after the enactment of this law, the government is obligated to submit a proposal for mutual Iranian action to return to the agreement's obligations before Parliament.
The Speaker of the Shura Council, Muhammad Baqir Qalibaf, affirmed that the council, by its approval of the draft strategic measures to abolish sanctions and safeguard the interests of the Iranian people, conveyed the message to Iran's enemies that unilateral play is over.
While the spokesman for the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee in the Shura Council, Abu Al-Fadl Amami, explained that the implementation of this law will strengthen the nuclear industry, violate the enemy's accounts and cost Westerners the price for imposing the ban.
"The enemy's miscalculations must be changed, and the Shura Council seeks to restore balance by focusing on the nuclear program and creating restrictions on inspections that are unfounded, and there are many questions about them," he added.
