NEW YORK (Dispatches) -- Iran’s Ambassador to the UN Amir Saeid Iravani said U.S. sanctions imposed on Cuba for more than six decades were an example of the most unjust and long-lasting system of unilateral measures no less than “military siege”.

Addressing a UN General Assembly meeting, Iravani said that the blockade against Cuba must immediately unconditionally end. “This action will not only bring relief to the Cuban people, but also send a powerful message that the era of coercion, domination and economic terrorism must end.”
