After the bill is approved, the Iranian government will be charged with following the rule to adopt reciprocal and proportional measures to address US anti-Iran actions, Mojtaba Zonnouri, Chairman of Majlis Nuclear Committee, told the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA).
According to the bill, the Iranian government has to ask for reliable guarantees from the Europeans and the members of the P5+1 group of nations, except for the United States, Zonnouri said, adding that the move by Majlis is in response to the May 8 decision made by US President Donald Trump to leave the July 2015 nuclear deal formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
The European guarantees should be full and comprehensive, and the talks with the European countries should not last for over a month, the parliamentarian said.
Zonnouri went on to say that according to the bill if the Europeans failed to provide Iran with guarantees or violated it after offering, the Iranian government will start the full fuel cycle.
In the bill, he said, the parliament has given task to the government to raise the level of uranium enrichment to over 190,000 SWU if the Europeans did not provide reliable guarantees.
US President Donald Trump announced his decision about the Iran Deal on May 8 and withdrew his country unilaterally from the international agreement.
Many world powers, including Russia, China, and the European Union are against Trump's decision.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, in response to the US decision about the Iran Deal, said on Tuesday that he has ordered the Foreign Ministry to consult with European countries, Russia and China within one to two weeks.
'If Iran's national interests are secured, we will remain in the deal,' President Rouhani said.
