Moscow-Sana
Deputy Chairman of the International Affairs Committee of the Russian Federation Council Andrei Klimov said that the influence of the United States is declining globally despite continuing the policy of pressure and sanctions against Iran.
"The Americans have certain instructions: to force Iran to do what they want, which is not possible, yet they do not have a clear understanding of what they want to achieve in the end," Klimov told Sputnik.
"It should be borne in mind that although Washington has serious instruments of influence, its chances in the world are diminishing every year and this of course bothers the Americans," Klimov said. "In addition, European countries have expressed their position on Iran and the nuclear deal with Tehran contrary to orientation." American. ”
The United States has unilaterally announced its withdrawal from the nuclear deal signed between Iran and the P5 + 1 group and imposing additional sanctions on Tehran as it continues to use sanctions and economic blockade as a weapon and a tool to pressure countries that reject their hegemonic policies and loot the wealth and capabilities of the world's people.
