US economic terrorism deliberately targeting civilians: Zarif

Tehran (KNA) - Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the US "economic terrorism" against independent countries "deliberately" target civilians in order to realize Washington's illegitimate goals.

"US economic terrorism against Cuba, China, Russia, Syria, Iran & … deliberately target civilians, trying to achieve illegitimate political objectives through intimidation of innocent people," the Iranian top diplomat said in a tweet on Friday.

Zarif's tweet came in reaction to an earlier tweet by Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez, who criticized the US' sanctions against Iran's maritime entities.
