Iran has rejected the new U.S. sanctions, calling them unfair and unjust. The country’s Foreign Ministry described the measures as “economic terrorism,” saying they follow earlier wars and pressure from the U.S. and Israel that failed to make the Iranian people surrender. The ministry argued that the sanctions are simply more crimes added to America’s record and will not weaken Iran’s determination to protect its independence and sovereignty.
Iran’s military also warned it would respond strongly to any new threats. Maj. Gen. Ali Abdollahi said the armed forces are ready across land, sea, air, air defense, and cyberspace, promising “crushing and devastating” responses if challenged.
US sanctions on Iran
The New US sanctions on Iran were announced while talks continued over reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a vital oil-trading route. President Donald Trump described the campaign as economic warfare and isolation, while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said it would be the toughest sanctions in history.
Iranian leaders have responded with a united front. Parliament speaker Mohammed Bagher Qalibaf urged economic representatives to prepare for the sanctions, the Foreign Ministry condemned them as terrorism, and the military warned of a devastating response. Together, these statements show Iran’s political, diplomatic, and military rejection of Washington’s latest measures
The situation highlights how the US sanctions on Iran is not only about economics but also about sovereignty, security, and regional stability. Iran insists it will resist pressure, while the U.S. continues to escalate its campaign. This clash of positions makes the path to resolution uncertain and raises the risk of further instability in the region.
