Parl. passes general outlines of countermeasure bill to US exploits

MNA Iranian parliament has passed on Sunday a bill on the generaloutlines of a countermeasure plan to US exploits and terrorist acts in the region.


Iranian lawmakers unanimously passed the general outlines of the bill in a 240-0 vote with one abstention.

Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi also voiced approval of Rouhanis administration for the bill.

The bill includes Irans countermeasure plans for any US acts of exploitation and terrorism in the region, as well as the Western countrys hostile moves that undermine the successful implementation of Irans nuclear deal, dubbed JCPOC, which went into effect in January 2016.

On August 2, US President Donald Trump signed into lawa bill by Congress that imposes new sanctions against Russia, Iran and North Korea.

Iranian officials deem the anti-Iran sanctions over its ballistic missile program and alleged support for terrorism in violation of the spirit, if not the letter, of the JCPOA.
