On Sunday, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani said the next US administration has an opportunity to compensate for its previous mistakes after Joe Biden’s victory in the presidential election.
In a statement Rouhani said: “Now there is an opportunity for the future American administration to compensate for its previous mistakes and return to the path of adherence to international commitments.”
He said: This US “administration’s harmful and wrong policy for the past three years was not only condemned by people all around the world, but was also opposed by the people of (the US) in the recent election.”
Rouhani said: that the Iranian people’s heroic resistance against the imposed economic war by the Trump administration proved that America’s maximum pressure policy is doomed to fail.
US President Donald Trump has applied a maximum pressure policy and crippling sanctions against Iran since his 2018 withdrawal from a landmark nuclear agreement with Tehran. The re-imposed sanctions targeted Iran’s vital oil industry and banking ties, among other sectors.
