Tehran : Foreign Ministry spokesman on Tuesday condemned the EU finance restrictions against the Islamic Republic of Iran, Iranian news agency (Irna) reported.
Mohammad-Ali Hosseini said that the illegal, double-standard and contradictory approach during the time the packages of proposals are being studied is meaningless and is strongly denounced.
Referring to hostile political approach against the legitimate rights of the Iranian nation, he said: “Adopting the stick and carrot policy towards the legal rights and national will of the great nation of Iran is futile and will have no effect on materialization of the indispensable rights of the nation.”
Hosseini said that “this kind of behavior will make the Iranian nation and government more determined in obtaining their rights.”
He added that such moves will ravage European opportunities and will not lead to an appropriate atmosphere for diplomacy to go ahead.
He advised the European Union to pay attention to an acceptable solution away from mock measures.
He also called for respect to the legitimate rights of the Iranian nation.
Hosseini urged the EU to adopt peaceful solutions based on common points shared by the two packages presented by Iran and the EU.
