Iran Rejects New U.S. Sanctions on State Officials



TEHRAN (Press TV) -- The spokesman for Iran’s Foreign Ministry said Monday the United States is by no means qualified to judge other countries in political, legal and moral terms, and must first clarify its own vicious and ominous track records. Abbas Mousavi made the remarks while referring to a recent report in which the U.S. State Department accused some Iranian officials, including the interior minister, of human rights abuses. The U.S. Treasury on Wednesday imposed illegal sanctions on eight Iranian officials, including Interior Minister Abdolreza Rahmani Fazli, as part of an anti-Iran campaign.
