Escalation of anti-Iran economic terrorism shows US panic, desperation: FM Zarif
Tehran (KNA) - Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the United States' decision to intensify its economic pressure campaign against the Iranian people reveals its “panic” and “desperation,” a day after Washington moved to stop other countries from buying Iranian oil.
Escalating #EconomicTERRORISM against Iranians exposes panic & desperation of US regime - and chronic failures of its client co-conspirators," Zarif said in a tweet on Tuesday.
The top Iranian diplomat's tweet came after the White House said in a statement that the US president has decided not to renew waivers that allow eight countries to buy Iranian oil without facing Washington's sanctions.
The US threatened sanctions against the countries that refuse to stop purchasing Iranian oil by May 1.
