Iran says US attempts to impose sanctions doomed to fail
rokna: Any US attempt to impose unilateral restrictions on Iran would breach the international law and be bound to fail, Iranian Foreign Ministry's spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said.
"The sanctions-addicted United States is not far to once again compensate for some of its blatant failures in the [United Nations] Security Council and its inability to reimpose previous sanctions that ended following the nuclear agreement and the UNSC 2231 Resolution", Khatibzadeh said in an interview with Sputnik.
"It is clear that any US attempt to introduce its unilateral steps [sanctions] violates international law and is doomed to fail", the spokesman said.
The statement comes after the Iranian Foreign Ministry said on Sunday that all restrictions on the transfer of arms to Iran ended. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo responded by saying that the United States was ready to sanction any individual or entity that supplies conventional arms to Iran.
