President Hassan Rouhani said on Tuesday that the United States has failed to advance its agenda against Iran, particularly in the oil sector, as the government has managed to restore a relative calm to the market, much to the chagrin of ill-wishers.
“The Americans had expected to see economic disarray in the country after November 4. However, our great people and all economic officials acted in such a way that the situation reversed,” the president said in remarks following a meeting of the heads of the three branches of government in Tehran over a host of issues facing the country, his official website reported.
The administration of US President Donald Trump reapplied sanctions to Iran’s oil sector on Nov. 5, after ending its participation in an international deal over the OPEC producer’s nuclear program.
