Khamenei: US sanctions aim to turn Iranians against government
None
US economic pressure on Iran is intended to turn Iranians against their government, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was quoted as saying on Saturday by his website, as Iran faces a likely reimposition of US sanctions.
"They bring to bear economic pressure to separate the nation from the system ... but six US presidents before him tried this and had to give up," Khamenei was quoted as saying by Khamenei.ir, referring to US President Donald Trump.
