Iran promised to retaliate against expanded U.S. economic sanctions, with Tehran expressing confidence that major trading partners would resist Washington’s pressure campaign.
Iran’s Economy Chief Ali Madanizadeh dismissed new U.S. measures as another “failure,” saying Tehran had anticipated them and has a two-year plan in place.
He said the government understands “inflation,” “currency pressure” and “shortages,” but vowed Iran would not only defend itself. He said, “We know how to play this game” adding the unipolar era is over and some major countries have rejected the plan.
