TEHRAN, Iran, July 2 (NNN-TASNIM) – Iranian Foreign Minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, said that, removal of U.S. dollar from Iranian foreign trade, would serve as an effective way to thwart U.S. sanctions’ impact against Iran.
In an address to the National Day of Industry and Mine, Zarif called for effective efforts, to deal with the U.S. economic pressures on Iran.
Washington plans to harm Iran’s economy, by disrupting the foreign currency markets, he said, adding that, Iran and some other countries, try to cut their dependence on the U.S. dollar, to avert economic harms.
