"Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs: The question of our public opinion is, what is the benefit of being a member of a document that the bully parties at the international level do not allow us to use the benefits and rights associated with it?

Iran's contemplation of withdrawing from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) signals potential escalation in regional tensions, impacting both geopolitical stability and energy markets.

Watch for market reactions, especially in energy prices and currency pairs like USD/JPY and EUR/GBP, as this develops.
