Zarif appreciated EU and three European states for sending aid packages to Iran in fighting coronavirus and described the US illegal and unilateral sanctions as an obstacle in the way of fighting the epidemic.
He also called on Britain to ignore US oppressive sanctions against the Iranian people under the current conditions both in view of its commitments under the JCPOA and humanitarian considerations.
