Imam Khamenei Welcomes Lift of Sanctions, Warns of US Deceit
Local Editor
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution His Eminence Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei confirmed that recent remarks by US leaders after official implementation of a nuclear accord and lifting of sanctions on Iran are “totally a cause for suspicion.”
In a letter to President Hassan Rouhani, the Leader urged the government “to take care the other side fully fulfills its obligations” under a nuclear accord which went into force on Saturday.
“It must be taken care that the opposite side fully fulfills its obligations. Remarks by some American politicians in the past two or three days are a cause for suspicion,” Imam Khamenei said.
He further stressed again that in this issue and other issues, “deceit and breach of promise by arrogant governments, especially America, must not be neglected, in this [nuclear] issue and other issues.”
In parallel, His Eminence hailed the result of nuclear talks and thanked the nuclear negotiating team for their sustained efforts.
“I express my satisfaction in that the resistance of the great Iranian nation against oppressive sanctions and efforts of nuclear scientists in advancing this important industry and tireless efforts of the negotiators forced the opposite sides – some of whom are renowned for enmity with the Iranian nation – to retreat and removal of part of the bullying sanctions.”
