The policy of driving Iran oil export to zero is doomed to failure

A member of the Iranian parliament said that Donald Trump's policy to drive Iran's oil export to zero is doomed to failure.

Iran Press/Iran news: The member of Iran's parliament, representing Mahallat and Delijan counties, Hujjat al-Islam Alireza Salimi has condemned the US president Donald Trump's decision to stop five of Iran's biggest customers from buying its oil, and said that America certainly will fail in this attempt, like its previous actions.

According to Iran Press news agency, Hujjat al-Islam Alireza Salimi in a speech in the open session of the Iranian parliament (Majlis) on Tuesday said: "Under the pressure of the Zionist regime and some countries of the region, the US acts unreasonably. American authorities should be told that they will not succeed."

The Iranian MP also condemned Trump's decision to end the waivers for countries to import Iranian oil and said: "America certainly will fail in this attempt, like its previous actions."

US administration announced on Monday that the United States will not be renewing waivers for several countries that were previously exempt from US sanctions on Iranian oil imports. 

Earlier on October 14, referring to the US claim that it can reduce Iran's oil exports to zero, Eshagh Jahangiri, Iran's first vice president emphasized the impossibility of the task, saying Washington will fail in its bid. 104/207
