Iran Will Use Every Possible Way to Export Oil
Zangeneh said that Iran will use every possible way to export its oil, adding that exporting crude was the country’s legitimate right.
"We will use every possible way to export our oil and we will not succumb to America’s pressure because exporting oil is Iran’s legitimate right,” Zanganeh said.
Iran’s crude oil exports were cut by more than 80% when the United States re-imposed sanctions after President Donald Trump exited Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers last year.
Since then, Washington has reimposed sanctions on Tehran’s oil exports. In response, Iran has gradually scaled back its commitments to the 2015 nuclear deal, under which Tehran accepted to curb its nuclear activities in return for lifting most international sanctions.
