Tehran, Dec 30, IRNA – Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh in a tweet late on Wednesday slammed US policy of maximum pressure, saying that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is desperately trying to dress it up as a success.

"After 4 years of "Maximum Failure", @SecPompeo is desperately turning to cheap propaganda to dress up the disaster he has promoted and instigated as a success. News flash: People aren't naive. And the world has refused to be held hostage to your bullying. Good riddance," he tweeted.
