According to the Young Journalists Club, Mohammad Reza Bahnar said: "The FATF issue is different from sanctions and it is an international agreement that considers money laundering and we should be a member of this group in the world."
Even today, only three or four countries are not members of this group.
He said: This matter has been delayed for some time in the Assembly and has not been concluded.
Previously, the government asked the Supreme Leader to review and approve this document again, and the leaders allowed the review, but they said you know whether it will be approved or not.
Bahner clarified: Now, those who are at the head of the FATF, it is in their country that money laundering occurs the most and they avoid it, so there is both of this way all over the world, but when we don't officially become a member, what does that mean, is that we want to circulate and launder money; Although I believe we should officially become members and act in areas that are in our interest; We should not act where it is not in our interest
