US sanctions, unilateralism, economic terrorism hamper anti-drug war: Iran FM
Tehran (KNA) - Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the United States is the main impediment to the global drug war due to sanctions it has imposed on Iran, as the main country curbing the flow of traditional narcotics to the West.
In an address to a conference held in Tehran on Monday to mark the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, Zarif added that the fact that Iran is a neighbor to the world's biggest producer of traditional narcotics has given regional and international prominence to measures it takes against illicit drug trafficking.
