Ayatollah Ali Khamenei strongly criticized the United States' new sanctions against Iran, labeling any negotiations as unwise and dishonorable. A government spokesperson condemned the sanctions as illegitimate actions that harm Iran's legitimate trade. Khamenei highlighted the experience of Iran making concessions in the past, which led to the US violating agreements. He warned of reciprocal threats to US security if it continues to pressure Iran. This situation marks the first new sanctions since President Trump resumed his administration, aiming to cut Iran's crude exports to zero.
Negotiating with America is neither smart, wise, or honourable. It will not solve any of our problems. The reason? Experience! We have made concessions in the past but the US tore up previous agreements.
The decision of the new US administration to exert pressure on the Iranian people by preventing Iran from conducting legitimate trade with its economic partners is an illegitimate action.
Iran holds the United States responsible for the consequences and repercussions of such unilateral and bullying actions, and condemned the new sanctions as illegitimate and unlawful.
If the US threatens Iran's security, Tehran will threaten the US's security.
