Iran’s Foreign Minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, on Wednesday blasted the United States’ latest economic sanctions against his country, saying they display a disregard for the human rights of all Iranians, Reuters reported.
“Latest US sanctions violate 2 ICJ orders: to not impede humanitarian trade & to not aggravate the dispute. Utter disregard for rule of law & human rights of an entire people. US outlaw regime’s hostility toward Iranians heightened by addiction to sanctions,” Zarif said in a Twitter post, in a reference to the International Court of Justice.
“US addiction to sanctions is out of control,” he added.
