WANA (Oct 17) – The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran emphasized that Iran’s sovereign rights are non-negotiable and will not come under political pressure.

 

On the eve of the expiration of UN Security Council Resolution 2231, Seyed Abbas Araghchi wrote in a post on the social network X:

 

“At the recent NAM Ministerial Summit in Kampala, more than 120 nations joined Iran in recognizing reality:

 

UN Security Council Resolution 2231 expires tomorrow, 18 October, thereby terminating all past UNSC restrictions against Iran and removing Iran from the Security Council’s agenda.

 

As an NPT signatory, Iran will remain bound solely to its rights and obligations under the Treaty. This includes no limits whatsoever on the scale of its nuclear program, and cooperation with the IAEA only within the framework of the Comprehensive Safeguards Agreement and in line with the recent legislation adopted by the Iranian Parliament.

 

The unlawful measures pursued by a handful of isolated governments have been rejected by a vast majority of nations. Those who insist on distorting reality will only further isolate themselves with their current path.

 

Iran’s sovereign rights are neither negotiable nor subject to political pressure. The rule of law — not coercion — must prevail.”
