"The imposition of new sanctions on the Islamic Republic shows a contradictory behavior on the part of the White House," Khatibzadeh said.
The Iranian foreign ministry spokesman added that a government that talks of returning to the nuclear deal but follows in the footsteps of former US president Donald Trump sends the message that it is not trustworthy.
Khatibzadeh said that various administrations in the US have proved the extent of their incapability to understand the realities of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
He pointed out that such moves are a continuation of the Trump administration’s failed policy of maximum pressure and its illegal and oppressive sanctions.
Khatibzadeh added that the policy has failed to produce any results and it will not yield anything but new setbacks for the US.
He stressed that these pressures and sanctions will not undermine the determination of the Islamic Republic to defend its honorable people’s security and peace.
Khatibzadeh further added that Tehran will forcefully continue down the path of sustainable development.
