4 Mar 2019 - 14:27


SHANA -- A member of the Iranian parliament said that US embargoes on Iran�s oil industry could never halt the sector�s progress given the capabilities of Iranian experts in the field.

Speaking to Shana, Mohammad Reza Rezaei Kouchi, who presides over the parliament�s Civil Committee, said, �Despite the fact that sanctions do have their impact, we have to admit that Iran�s oil industry has never ceased to progress under the embargoes.�

He said the US had always strived to throw a wrench in Iran�s oil exports and bring them to zero, but they had failed to do so.

�There might have been hindrances in the investment sector, but great achievements have been made in regard to the petrochemical and gas distribution projects in the country,� he added.

The MP said that the capabilities of Iranian oil and gas exports are well recognized in the region and even in the world, adding, �We have experienced the sanctions in the past.�
