TEHRAN (FNA)- Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Majid Takht Ravanchi complained that not a single voice is heard from the US state and treasury departments on the implementation of the last year nuclear deal with Tehran and resumption of the country's banking interactions with the world.

"Some of the problems are related to this fact that there are sanctions that are not nuclear related and they have worried certain European financial institutions and we are also critical of them and have told the Americans too that they should create the necessary atmosphere based on the nuclear deal to remove these concerns, but they are not doing so, in our view," Takht Ravanchi said on Wednesday.


"In our view, two messages are coming from the US; one from the US state department which says that there is no problem for banking and financial works with Iran and the second from the OFAC (the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US Treasury Department) which contradicts the first message," he added.


Noting that the Iranian negotiators in their meetings with their American counterparts have many times emphasized that not only their message is contradictory, but also it is not a positive one, Takht Ravanchi said that the OFAC should give a General License to the European and other giant banks in the world for interaction with Iran or contact each bank separately, answer their questions and respond to their concerns.


"This process shouldn�t take long either," he added.


In relevant remarks earlier this month, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Seyed Abbas Araqchi also lambasted the US for its destructive role against the resumption of Tehran's banking relations with the world states after the last year nuclear agreement.


"The Americans have not only remained adamant to building trust (between the Iranian banks and their foreign counterparts after the nuclear deal), but also played a destructive role in this regard," Araqchi told reporters in a press conference in Tehran.


Also this month, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif blasted the US for its negative approach towards implementation of the last year nuclear agreement, and said the Europeans are also angry at Washington's behavior.


"Every one says that the Americans haven�t implemented the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (the nuclear deal) in the best way possible," Zarif told FNA.


"The European sides also have problem with the Americans as they have some psychological concerns" as a result of the Iranophobia projects implemented against Tehran in the past.
