Iranian hardliners demand production of nuclear weapons, refuse to negotiate with the US ZH伊朗強硬派要求製造核武 拒絕與美談判
Newtalk新聞 ​伊朗強硬派政治團體「強大伊朗陣線」(Strong Iran Front)於 24 日發表聲明,要求至高領袖穆吉塔巴·哈米尼(Mojtaba Khamenei)將「製造核武器」納入國防政策之一。此消息由接近伊朗革命衛隊的法爾斯通訊社(Fars News Agency)報導。 ​聲明指出,考量到美國與以色列過去攻擊伊朗的背景,「敵對國家皆擁有核彈頭」。儘管已故的前至高領袖阿里·哈米尼曾透過伊斯蘭教令(Fatwa)禁止製造核武器,但該團體呼籲應「重新審視」並進行方針轉變。 該團體還要求完全拒絕與美國談判。該組織堅決反對川普政府要求出口高濃縮鈾的所謂要求,認為這將削弱威懾力,並呼籲考慮退出《不擴散核武器條約》(NPT)。 該組織指出,如果美國或以色列發動攻擊,「敵對國家擁有核武」,並認為與其進行毫無結果的談判,不如將重點放在避免經濟制裁、解決國內經濟問題以及確保強大的軍事威懾力上。延伸閱讀:才說美期中選舉前不會攻擊伊朗 川普改口:可能再來一次「史詩怒火」行動情資示警伊朗威脅升級!美國緊急縮減中東4國大使館人員配置ISW:俄軍在戰場上沒贏 談判只為從美國獲得經濟讓步川普再提對伊朗動武推升油價! 美股道瓊下殺652點、台積電ADR漲1.49%不明三角物體無聲懸停垂直爬升!美軍觀察員目擊神祕飛行物飆破 2900 公里
