TEHRAN (Dispatches) – Iran’s Foreign Ministry said on Thursday touched on South Korea’s freezing of Iran’s money under U.S. pressures, saying no country is entitled to ignore Iran’s rights in favor of a third country.
"We informed them that the U.S. sanctions were unfounded and unilateral and no country must succumb to the U.S. sanctions,” ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi said. "No country is entitled to ignore Iran’s rights for a third country,” he added. South Korea is refusing to about $7 billion of oil money held in its banks.
