Trump: Any country that buys oil from Iran does not have the right to trade with the United States.
Donald Trump, referring to the U.S. sanctions imposed on Wednesday against Iran’s oil and petrochemical export network, said, ‘I imposed sanctions last night; any country that buys oil from Iran will not have the right to trade with the United States.’
He emphasized that if he were President, Iran would not have given money to Hamas, the Lebanese militants, or anyone else because there was no money involved and it was completely bankrupt.
Trump’s remarks come simultaneously with the official confirmation of the cancellation of talks between the United States and the Islamic Republic, which were scheduled for Saturday in Italy.
Trump had previously expressed satisfaction with the negotiation process but also warned that if the negotiations failed, he would resort to military options against the Islamic Republic.
Trump said that during his first term as president, the Islamic Republic was in a very difficult situation and was ready for an agreement, but this process was halted with the U.S. elections.
