Iran Press/ Europe: Iranian Ambassador to Russia Kazem Jalali said on Monday that the countries targeted by Washington’s sanctions pressure could unite their efforts for jointly countering the US policy.
"I believe it’s high time we created a club of countries hit by sanctions. Among its members will be many strong powers with developed economies: Russia, China, and Iran," Jalali said, noting that such states should help each other in order to offset the negative influence of US steps.
The diplomat stressed that Washington cannot tolerate any rivals whose positions in any region are stronger than those of the US.
"They want Russia to be weak, China to be economically subordinated to them and Iran to become their colony. That’s why we need to cooperate, help each other and complement each other," Jalali said.
The Iranian diplomat put emphasis on the unity of the states against the US sanctions and unilateralism so that they will overcome US pressure. 207/209
