Iran’s trade partners won’t listen to US ‘big talk’: Qalibaf
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf has dismissed as mere "big talk" Washington’s threats of punishing countries that engage in any form of trade with the Islamic Republic, saying Iran’s trade partners will not comply with US sanctions.
In a post on his X account on Monday, Qalibaf said trade partners have conveyed to Iran that they will completely disregard the US threats.
“Iran's trade partners have also announced to us, both through the media and by sending messages, that they regard these statements as utterly meaningless,” he said in the Farsi-language post.
The Iranian Parliament speaker also said the United States economy has already suffered because of the impacts of its war of aggression on Iran and that it would not tolerate any disputes with other countries over Iran.
“The Americans know that no one believes their big talk; the United States is not in a position economically to further restrict its relations with other countries,” said Qalibaf.
In an English-language post on Sunday, Qalibaf had ridiculed the US government's promise to impose some of its most crushing sanctions on the Islamic Republic, saying the US war of aggression on Iran has left the Americans struggling with nothing but acute economic problems.
He said the US has been experiencing economic woes as a result of more than six months of aggression and pressure on Iran, including declining yields on its bonds and a recession in the American housing market.
“A frozen foreign policy delivers a frozen economy…The only thing still moving? The Iran boomerang,” Qalibaf said.
