Iran is facing ‘comprehensive war that is worse than Iraq conflict’: Rouhani
BEIRUT, LEBANON (55:40 P.M.) – Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said that his country is facing a comprehensive economic war imposed on it three years ago.
This came in his statements on the sidelines of his participation in the inauguration ceremony of 25 projects in the energy field in 3 provinces, according to the Fars News Agency.
In his remarks, Rouhani emphasized, “Today we are facing a comprehensive economic war that is much stronger than the war imposed over the past 8 years (the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq war).”
“Neither the Americans nor anyone in the world imagined that we would be able to resist and run the country in such difficult circumstances and under the most severe types of economic, political and psychological warfare,” Rouhani said.
