JAKARTA - The Iranian Foreign Ministry said the policy of increasing US import duties for countries that do business with Iran could have dangerous consequences for international trade.
Previously on Monday (12/1), US President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social that any country that does business with Iran will be subject to a 25 percent tariff for every business activity carried out with the US.
"The spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Ismail Baghaei) warned of the dangerous consequences of unilateral coercive actions by the US against the international trading system," the ministry said in a statement quoted by Sputnik, Wednesday, January 14.
The spokesperson also highlighted the illegal and inhumane nature of the American economic sanctions, as well as the contradiction of the sanctions with the basic principles and norms applicable in the UN Charter and international law, the ministry added.
