Zarif says US maximum pressure indicates desperation

IRNA Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Sunday that the US maximum pressure indicates desperation of the White House, affirming that Tehran will overcome the maximum pressure.

The Iranian top diplomat made the remarks at an event titled 'My Mission' at the prestigious high school Allameh Helli in Tehran.

"Today, we are not in a weak position. Rather, we have the upper hand. The US has made big mistakes, and has felt that it is in a weak position with its accomplices in the region. In Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Lebanon, it didn't reach its goals because people and the resistance movement didn't accept the US policies," he said.

Iran has not aligned with Daesh (terrorist group of ISIS), al-Nusra, the Zionist regime and those who are killing the Yemeni children, he said adding that the right decisions by the country has made it a factor in the global and regional 'equation'.

The US power is based on its dollar, so if the countries exclude the currency from their economic system, much of the power will decline, the Iranian top diplomat said in reference to the decision of Moscow and Beijing to remove dollar from their bilateral trade.
