“This bill is finalized in Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, setting some obligations for the government to implement,” Boroujerdi said.

He reiterated that the bill is ready and will be submitted to the Parliament’s presiding board right after the vacations.

The bill provided by the Commission, is a response by Iranian Parliament and MPs to recent Congress measure to impose new sanctions on Iran, Boroujerdi said, adding, “in order to defend national interests, the countermeasure bill is the Islamic Republic of Iran’s powerful act against the United States.”
