Iran’s Foreign Ministry criticized new US sanctions on firms selling oil to China as illegal and unjustified, stating they violate international laws and hinder Iran’s legitimate economic activities.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry has strongly opposed the recent US sanctions targeting companies allegedly involved in selling crude oil to China. Esmaeil Baqaei, a spokesman for the ministry, characterized the sanctions as both “illegal” and “unjustified.” He emphasized that the US government’s actions are an illegitimate attempt to hinder Iran’s lawful economic dealings with its partners, describing the sanctions as a violation of international laws.
The sanctions introduced by the United States are part of ongoing tensions between the two nations, particularly regarding Iran’s oil exports. Amidst efforts to curb Iran’s oil revenue, these measures have targeted firms believed to be engaged in trade with China. This situation highlights the broader geopolitical disputes and regulations shaping global trade, especially in energy supplies.
The Iranian government has condemned the latest US sanctions as unjust and illegitimate, asserting that they contravene international law and hinder Iran’s legal trade practices. The country’s foreign ministry spokesperson expressed that such actions are indicative of the ongoing economic pressures the US places on Iran in the context of the broader geopolitical conflicts.
