Us sanctions will proudly be broken says iran president
On September 21, 2022, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi stated that the country will "proudly" break US sanctions, emphasizing that Iran will not be intimidated by the economic restrictions imposed by the United States.
Raisi made these comments during a speech at the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. He emphasized that Iran will continue to develop its economy and strengthen its international relations, despite the US sanctions.
The US has imposed a range of sanctions on Iran since 2018, targeting the country's oil and gas sector, as well as its financial and banking systems. The sanctions were imposed in response to Iran's nuclear program and its support for militant groups in the region.
Iran has repeatedly vowed to defy the sanctions, and Raisi's comments suggest that the country is committed to doing so. However, the sanctions have had a significant impact on Iran's economy, leading to high inflation, currency fluctuations, and shortages of essential goods.
Raisi's statement is likely to be seen as a challenge to the US, which has been trying to pressure Iran to return to the negotiating table to discuss its nuclear program. The US has offered to lift some of the sanctions in exchange for concessions on the nuclear program, but Iran has so far refused to engage in talks.
The situation is likely to remain tense, with both sides dug in and unwilling to back down. The international community is watching the situation closely, and it remains to be seen how the standoff will ultimately be resolved.
