French president Emmanuel Macron said that the global community must act to prevent Iran from withdrawing from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of atomic Weapons (NPT), which forbids it from acquiring atomic weapons.
Some Iranian politicians threatened to retreat from the NPT in retaliation for fresh US and Israeli attacks on the country's atomic facilities.Macro argued that the attacks were ‘really effective’, But he warned that the worst script would be to retreat Iran from the groundbreaking arms control treaty."The worst script would be to retreat Iran from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of atomic Weapons, and thus yet drift and collective weakness" “He told Macron reporters after the EU summit in Brussels on Thursday."Our hope is simply a actual convergence of views, due to the fact that the aim... is to prevent [Iran] proliferation from being resumed" – he added.Macron said that France plans to consult with the remaining 4 permanent members of the UN safety Council – US, UK, Russia and China – in the coming days.

He noted that he had informed U.S. president Donald Trump of France's fresh communication with Tehran.Rafael Grossi, head of the global Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said that it would "very deplorable," If Iran had withdrawn from the treaty.Abbas Golroo, president of the Iranian Parliament's abroad Relations Committee, stated on 22 June – on the day the US attacked 3 atomic facilities, including a uranium enrichment centre in Ford – that Iran has "right to retreat from the Treaty".

He later added that legislators would review the country's continued participation in the NPT.Earlier this week, the Iranian parliament voted to suspend cooperation with the IAEA after ultimate Leader Ali Chamenei accused the agency of inappropriately condemning the attacks.Iran, which denies that it is implementing a military atomic program, maintains that it has the right to enrich uranium for civilian purposes.
