World December 27, 2020 TEHRAN: Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani has censured the US for blocking the import of almost everything to the country, including medicine and Covid-19 vaccine, saying, however, that his government is doing its best to make the illegal US sanctions ineffective. He made the remarks during a meeting of the national task force for fighting the coronavirus in Tehran on Saturday, days after Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei advised the Iranian nation and officials to focus on neutralizing the sanctions instead of trying to secure their removal. “He called for rendering sanctions ineffective; we are doing this not on an hourly basis, but every moment during the process of exporting and buying goods from abroad.”
