The exact date of the imposition of sanctions is not specified, but Kanaani stressed that Tehran intends to do so in the near future. Such measures will be a response to a similar step by Brussels and London: the EU and the UK have imposed new sanctions against Iran due to the suppression of protests in this country.

“The actions of the EU and Britain are a sign of their intellectual disability to properly understand the realities of modern Iran, as well as their confusion in dealing with the authority of the country,” the representative of the Iranian Foreign Ministry noted.
