Accordingly, the Ministry of Home Affairs has sent the decision of the Council of Ministers to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. But the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not yet sent a letter to the US.

The meeting of the International Relations Committee held on Wednesday to discuss the issue questioned,” why the government’s decision not to participate in the SPP was not sent to the US?”
