Iranian lawmakers on Wednesday, November 23, started final discussions over a double-urgency bill on downgrading relations with the UK, Fars News Agency reported.

The bill, which will most likely be put to vote later today, outpaced other motions on the parliament agenda due to London's imposition of an embargo against the Central Bank of Iran (CBI).

The bill which is awaiting a final approval by a majority of the MPs necessitates the government to drop all its political relations with Britain and concurrently file lawsuits at Iranian and international bodies over the financial and spiritual damages inflicted on Iran by the British government so far.

It also urges the government to inquire the parliament's view about the resumption of relations in case the British government apologizes and asks for resuming bilateral relations with Iran.
