Iranian President Hassan Rouhani waves at a large crowd of people in Shirvan, in North Khorasan Province
Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani says the United States has failed on every path it has taken against Iran.
President Rouhani told a large crowd of people in the northeastern city of Shirvan, in North Khorasan Province, on Sunday that whatever Washington had tried against Iran, including “the harshest of sanctions” — had wound up in failure.
“It’s been 14 months that the world’s largest economic and military power has been imposing the harshest of sanctions against the Iranian nation, sanctions that would have taken any other nation down,” the Iranian president said. “But the heroic, vigilant, and resistant nation of Islamic Iran has firmly withstood those sanctions over this period.”
“Whatever path the Americans took — be it social, political, and legal — led to failure,” President Rouhani said.
He cited recent meetings of the United Nations (UN) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), where the US failed to advance its agenda against Iran.
