It is also indicated the need to adopt clear procedures regarding the rapid exchange of relevant information regarding Iran's proliferation activities. The measures include reviewing and strengthening the capacity of national authorities to manage matters related to Iran's ballistic missiles and drones. Also, the document mentions the need for specific measures to uphold prohibitions on Iran's ballistic missile and drone development programs," the Ministry also said.The quoted source mentions that the Declaration is issued in the context of marking, on October 18, 2023, the transition stage - Transition Day, 8 years after the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) with Iran, according to Resolution 2231 of the UN Security Council.MAE reminds that on Wednesday part of the sanctions imposed on Iran expire according to UN Security Council Resolution 2231.
