If Iran's nuclear issue is referred to the United Nations Tehran will quit the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said.
This comes after Iranian Foreign Ministry's spokesman Seyyed Abbas Mousavi said in an interview earlier on Monday that Tehran still adheres to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), blaming the European countries for failing to fulfil their obligations under the deal.
