Iran, June 27, 2019 - Following the U.S. sanctions against Ali Khamenei, the Iranian regime’s Supreme Leader, and a number of Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) commanders, the open-door session of Iran’s Majlis (parliament) turned to a scene of grievance for its members.
Members of Majlis, while condemning the U.S. new sanctions against legal and official figures of this regime, described the new actions a sign of its desperation. These sanctions are against international law, the mullahs’ state-run TV aired a program on Tuesday making such claims.
“Through the scenarios of Fujairah, Sea of Oman and the U.S. drone they want to minimize their failures by constantly raising these and such issues,” said Jamal Nobandegani.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran has reached relative economic stability and crossing the sanctions has become possible for us. This is something that the Americans have recognized too and therefore waging a psychological war against us,” said Jamali Nobandegani, another member of the Majlis. 
“Apparently, the U.S. will not stop its stupid actions. In addition to the Supreme Leader and military commanders, Iranian regime Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif is also sanctioned. This means that the U.S lies that it seeks negotiations, the use of diplomacy and defusing tensions. I call upon our Foreign Ministry to send diplomatic responses to the countries cooperating with the U.S. such as the UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the United Kingdom,” said Mostafa Kavakabian.
“Last night, I tweeted to Mr. Zarif that it is time for John Kerry to show up and delist you!” said Mashhad Majlis member Karimi Ghodosi.
