BAKU, Azerbaijan,
August 21. Iran’s Foreign Minister rejects new US
pressure measures as doomed to fail.
Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi made a post about
this on his X social network account today.
“14 years ago: ‘Most crippling sanctions in history.’
Failed.
8 years ago: ‘Maximum pressure.’ Failed.
5 months ago: ‘Unconditional surrender.’ Failed.
Today: ‘Most crushing economic operation ever.’ Bound to
fail.
We have seen this movie before. Same bull. Different bullies,”
he wrote.
Araghchi stressed that previous attempts to force Iran into
submission through sanctions and pressure campaigns have
consistently failed, and the latest measures will meet the same
fate.
Meanwhile, tensions between Iran and the United States remain
high following the months-long conflict that began with US and
Israeli airstrikes on February 28. A peace memorandum was signed
between the two countries on June 18 under Pakistani mediation, but
talks on a final agreement have faced repeated difficulties amid
mutual accusations of non-compliance and continued pressure.
