Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghhai has denounced the new US Treasury sanctions on several Iranian and non-Iranian individuals and groups under the pretext of cooperation with Iran in the commercial and banking sectors.
A foreign ministry spokesman said the new US sanctions against Iran, imposed as part of its policy of inhumanity and maximum pressure on Iran, are illegal and violate international legal principles and norms, but also serve as yet another testimony of the deep and continued hostility of the US regime of control in the United States.
Bagaei undoubtedly emphasizes that US sanctions on Iran’s Islamic Republic are designed and implemented with the aim of increasing pressure on all Iranian citizens and depriving them of basic human rights, further strengthening the resolve of Iranian people to protect legitimate rights and concerns facing Washington’s excesses.
