Hossein Naghavi Hosseini. told Mehr News Agency on Sunday.

“We are implementing the Additional Protocol voluntarily and we can put an end to this.“ he said. adding. “when the other party doesn’t fulfill its commitments. there is no necessity for us to meet our part of commitments. we should not let the Agency continue its inspection according to the Additional Protocol.“
