Iran Press/ Asia: South Korea owes about $ 8 billion to purchase gas condensate from Iran, which it has refused to pay since 2018 under the pretext of the US sanctions.
Western media claim that the country needs the permission of the US Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) to repay the debt.
Fereydoun Entezari said: "Korea has benefited a lot from blocking Iran's assets, and should compensate damages that inflicted on Iran."
"The Korean government follows US policies and it is needed that to be deal with decisively," he said.
