FDD promotes economic terrorism against Iranian nation: Foreign Ministry

In our view, the American Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) is not considered to be a think tank at all, but is an organization that engages in designing and promoting 'economic terrorism' and is behind the US administration's virulent measures against the people of Iran on a daily basis," Foreign Ministry Spokesman Abbas Mousavi said on Thursday.

The Iranian diplomat described the FDD as a designing and operational arm of the US administration, saying that Washington bases most of its adversarial efforts against the Iranian nation on plots devised by this foundation.

On Saturday, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said it had added the foundation and its Chief Executive Mark Dubowitz to its list of sanctions for their role in spreading "economic war and terrorism against the Iranian people."
