Iran blasts new sanctions as ‘reprehensible, ineffective’

Iran on Tuesday blasted new sanctions against it announced by the United States, Britain and Canada as “reprehensible and ineffective.”

Foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast made the comments a day after Washington, London and Ottawa said they were levelling additional sanctions on Iran’s financial sector because of a report by the UN atomic energy watchdog strongly suggesting Tehran was researching nuclear weapons.
