“Such actions by the United States are unwise. You can not impose sanctions on who you need to engage in dialogue and negotiate. Americans have long had to make sure that the sanctions measures are of no benefit to the world community or the United States itself, ”said the senator.

Tsekov also expressed confidence that the US sanctions "will absolutely not affect Iran’s positions."

“The truth is on the side of Tehran. He fulfilled all the agreements. The United States unilaterally refused from everything and began to accuse Iran of alleged violations. Such actions of the States do not contribute to stability in the world, ”he concluded.

Earlier in the United States decided to impose sanctions against Iranian Foreign Minister.
