Rouhani: ICJ’s ruling a legal and political victory for Iran

International

Iranian President Hasan Rouhani has stressed that the International Court of Justice’s categorical rejection of the American objections to Iran’s complaint against Washington over illegal anti-Iran sanctions is a political and legal victory for Iran and an indication of the power of the Iranian people.

Rouhani made the remarks on Thursday; one day after the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled that it can take on Iran’s bid to overturn illegal US sanctions, which were re-imposed by former president Donald Trump in May 2018 after he pulled Washington out of a nuclear deal with Tehran and world powers, according to Press TV.

“I congratulate our dear Iranian people as the Administration of Prudence and Hope achieved great success at The Hague-based court. This is one of the several victories that the government has secured at the International Court of Justice against the United States, and this is very important,” he said during a video conference inaugurating five industrial projects in Zanjan Province.

 Iran brought the case in 2018 after Trump reinstated anti-Iran sanctions following his unilateral withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
