Iran rejected as an "antagonistic move" on Tuesday, Feb 7, a tightening of U.S. sanctions that targets the Islamic state's Central Bank and gives U.S. banks new powers to freeze assets linked to the Iranian government.
"It is an antagonistic move … a psychological war which has no impact … There is nothing new, it has been going on for over 30 years," Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast told a weekly news conference, Reuters reported.
