Irans Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi has announced that the US-engineered sanctions against the Islamic Republic will be gradually removed from today, March 3.With the measures devised by the [Iranian] diplomatic apparatus, from today we will witness the gradual removal of the sanctions, Salehi told reporters on Sunday, IRNA reported.
The enemies claimed last year that crippling sanctions against Iran were on their way; however, they themselves have admitted that sanctions have not had much impact in Iran.
If the enemy has spent USD 100 to impose sanctions on Iran, it has not benefitted and reaped even USD 10 [in return], the minister added.
The United States, Israel and some of their allies have repeatedly accused Iran of pursuing non-civilian objectives in its nuclear energy program. Iran has categorically rejected the allegation.
Over the false allegation, Washington and the European Union have imposed several rounds of illegal unilateral sanctions against the Islamic Republic.
