Iran to keep exporting crude oil despite U.S. pressure: Iran president
Iran will continue to export oil despite U.S. pressure aimed at reducing the nation’s crude oil shipments to zero, Iran President Hassan Rouhani said in a speech broadcast live on Iranian state TV on Tuesday.
“America’s decision that Iran’s oil exports must reach zero is a wrong and mistaken decision, and we won’t let this decision be executed and operational” Rouhani said.
“In future months, the Americans themselves will see that we will continue our oil exports,” he said.
If the United States is able to stop one method for Iran to export oil, then it will find other ways, Rouhani said.
