‘U.S. Sanctions Killing Iranian Patients’


TEHRAN (Press TV) – U.S. sanctions on Iran have made it almost impossible for Iranian brain tumor patients to receive non-invasive treatment at home, says a lawyer on international laws, as he slams Washington for its campaign of maximum pressure which he believes is indiscriminately targeting the Iranian people. Reza Nasri, an Iranian lawyer based in Europe, said in a thread of tweets posted on Tuesday that the United States is totally wrong in claiming that sanctions on Iran have had no impact at all on Iran’s access to vital medicine. Narsi said that U.S. bans had impeded the import to Iran of the cobalt needed to run equipment used for non-invasive surgeries on brain tumor patients.
