(The Times of Israel) Iran says the US is facing a “historic” defeat as an arms embargo against Tehran is to be lifted within days despite Washington’s bid to have it extended.
Addressing the issue at a news conference, foreign ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh also lashes out at the “insanity” of the latest US sanctions against banks in the Islamic Republic.
Next Sunday the “historic defeat of the United States will be realized, and that came to be despite its attempts, trickery and extrajudicial moves,” Khatibzadeh says.
