Iranian President. Hassan Rouhani has said that his government is trying to nullify the illegal and unilateral sanctions imposed on Tehran by the United States. At the same time, President Rouhani strongly condemned the US embargo on all essential goods, including medicines.

President Rouhani said, “The Supreme Leader has called for the US sanctions to be revoked; We are not only running that effort on an hourly basis but also running that effort at every moment. As part of this, efforts are being made to import goods from different countries of the world and export them to different countries.
