Iranian Foreign Minister: US Economic Pressure on Iran "Bound to Fail"

BlockBeats News, August 22nd - Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi posted on social media, stating that the sanctions and pressure policies imposed by previous U.S. administrations on Iran have all ended in failure, and the latest U.S. announcement of economic pressure on Iran is also "doomed to fail." Araghchi reviewed a series of U.S. policies towards Iran in his post. He stated that 14 years ago, the U.S. claimed to impose the "most severe sanctions in history" on Iran, 8 years ago it implemented "maximum pressure" on Iran, and 5 months ago it demanded Iran's "unconditional surrender," all of which ultimately failed.

Regarding U.S. President Trump's recent announcement of imposing "the most devastating economic action against a country in history" on Iran, Araghchi stated that this action is also "doomed to fail." He also criticized that there has been no substantial change in the U.S. policy towards Iran by previous administrations. Araghchi said: "We've seen this show before, the same lies, just with a new group of bullies." (CCTV News)
