Tehran-SANA

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh condemned the action taken by the European Union to include the names of a number of Iranian officials and institutions in the European Union's sanctions list.

Khatibzadeh said in a statement today: Such actions by false preachers and preachers for human rights are unacceptable, for they not only took the side of silence with political motives towards violating the rights of the Iranian people as a result of the anti-human and illegal American embargo, but they also kept pace with those violations that led to the denial and exposure. Making full use of lofty concepts such as human rights.

Khatibzadeh affirmed that Iran, as part of its response to this measure, would suspend comprehensive talks with the European Union, including human rights talks and all forms of cooperation resulting from them, especially in the areas of terrorism, drugs and refugees, pointing out that his country is studying the imposition of reciprocal sanctions in response to the European Union measures that will take place. To be announced later.
