Iran condemns new US sanctions, holds Washington fully responsible
Iran's foreign ministry denounced new US sanctions as economic terrorism and warned Washington will bear full responsibility for the consequences.
Iran's foreign ministry has denounced the United States' recent sanctions as "economic terrorism" and warned that Washington will bear full responsibility for the consequences. The statement from Iran's ministry highlights what Tehran calls the US's "arrogant nature and disregard for international law." The sanctions, according to Iran, reflect Washington's inability to achieve its goals in recent confrontations.
Iran's foreign ministry described the US sanctions as "economic terrorism and a crime against humanity," vowing that those responsible would be held accountable. It emphasized that financial pressure and economic restrictions would not prevent Iran from defending its independence and national sovereignty.
The ministry also warned that the policy of sanctions has already been a complete failure, and repeating it would only result in further setbacks. It held the US administration, policymakers, and executors of these plans fully responsible for any consequences.
