Iran Resolutely Counterattacks US Threats: Refuses Illegal Sanctions and Pressure

On May 1st, U.S. President Donald Trump threatened that buyers of Iranian oil and petroleum products would face renewed sanctions and could no longer "engage in trade" with the U.S. side.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry released a statement on its Telegram channel stating: "Iran does not accept the means of threat and pressure, which are contradictory to the UN Charter and international law and aim to cause losses to Iran's national interests. Therefore, Iran firmly condemns illegal sanctions and the pressure on Iran's economic and trade partners. We believe that this once again shows that the Iranian people have the right to deeply doubt and distrust the seriousness of the U.S. side's intention to resolve the nuclear issue through diplomatic channels."
