MNA � Expediency Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei said that the Council does not consider hasty joining of the country to Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) bill �advisable�.
�Expediency Council is mulling over the issue of joining to CFT Bill meticulously and adoption of hasty and snap decision on this issue is not advisable,� he said on Wed. according to IRIB.
Turning to the latest situation of the UN Palermo Convention on Transnational Organized Crime and CFT bills, he said, �some members of the Expediency Council are worried that, despite economic sanctions imposed against the country, ratification of these bills and international conventions may be abused and damage people�s livelihood.�
Interests of the country should be taken into consideration on this issue and ambiguous points should be settled completely, Expediency Council Secretary Rezaei highlighted.
He said that a joint commission in the Council will continue addressing the bills on Saturday.
