Moscow Opposes Iran’s Nuclear Treaty Exit as Tehran Threatens Regional Infrastructure

Moscow does not want Iran to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, as Tehran threatens to target infrastructure across the Middle East amid tensions over its nuclear programme.

US President Donald Trump rejected a new plan put forward by Iran on the sidelines of United Nations meetings in New York. Details of the proposal were not provided.

Tehran, however, said it was still awaiting an official response from the United States through intermediaries, distinguishing Trump’s public rejection from a formal reply delivered through diplomatic channels.

Russia’s opposition to an Iranian withdrawal places the nuclear treaty at the centre of the dispute, alongside efforts to secure a response to Tehran’s proposal.

Iran’s threat against regional infrastructure adds a broader security dimension to the standoff. No specific targets were identified in the information provided.
