Iranian Foreign Minister: US Economic Pressure Campaign Against Iran "Doomed to Fail"

Odaily News – Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stated on social media that the sanction and pressure policies adopted by successive US administrations against Iran have all ended in failure, and the latest US economic pressure campaign against Iran is likewise "doomed to fail." In his post, Araghchi reviewed a series of policies the US has implemented against Iran in recent years. He noted that 14 years ago, the US claimed to impose "the toughest sanctions in history" on Iran; 8 years ago, it implemented "maximum pressure" on Iran; and 5 months ago, it demanded Iran's "unconditional surrender" — all of these policies ultimately failed.

In response to US President Trump's recent announcement of what he described as "the most devastating economic action ever taken against a country," Araghchi said this campaign is likewise "doomed to fail." He also criticized successive US administrations for their lack of substantive change in policy toward Iran. Araghchi remarked: "We have seen this show before — the same lies, just a different group of bullies." (CCTV News)
