Iran slams US sanctions as 'hostile' ahead of new round of talks
Iran's foreign ministry on Wednesday condemned the latest U.S. sanctions targeting its oil network, calling the move a sign of Washington's "hostile approach" ahead of a third round of indirect nuclear talks.
In a statement, Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei said the US policy of imposing sanctions on the Iranian people was a "clear contradiction with the United States' demand for dialogue and negotiation and indicates America's lack of goodwill and seriousness in this regard."
