Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on social media that U.S. sanctions and pressure campaigns against Iran have all ended in failure, and that Washington’s latest economic pressure move will also fail. He said the U.S. claimed 14 years ago to be imposing the “harshest sanctions in history,” introduced “maximum pressure” 8 years ago, and demanded Iran’s “unconditional surrender” 5 months ago, but none of those policies worked. Araghchi also criticized what he described as a lack of substantive change in U.S. policy toward Iran across successive administrations. In his post, he said: “We have seen this act before. Same lies, just a different bully.” The comments came after U.S. President Donald Trump announced what he called the most devastating economic action ever taken against a country.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on social media that every U.S. sanctions and pressure campaign against Iran has failed, and that Washington’s latest economic pressure move is also “destined to fail.”
Araghchi said the U.S. has spent years recycling the same approach toward Iran. Fourteen years ago, Washington said it was imposing the “harshest sanctions in history.” Eight years ago, it rolled out “maximum pressure.” Five months ago, it called on Iran to surrender “unconditionally.” He said all of those efforts failed in the end.
He was responding to U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent announcement that the United States would take what he described as “the most devastating economic action ever taken against a country.” Araghchi said that move would also fail.
Araghchi also said there has been no real change in U.S. policy toward Iran across successive administrations.
“We have seen this act before, the same lies, just a different bully,” he said.
