US Will Sanction Any Country that Imports Iranian oil: Envoy

American special envoy for Iran Brian Hook has said the United States will sanction any country that imports oil from the Islamic Republic and there are no exemptions in this regard.

“We will sanction any imports of Iranian crude oil… There are right now no oil waivers in place,” Brian Hook said on Friday in London when asked about the sale of Iranian crude to Asia, according to Press TV.

He added that the United States would investigate reports of Iranian crude going to China.

“We will sanction any illicit purchases of Iranian crude oil,” he told reporters.

US President Donald Trump on Monday announced new sanctions against Iran targeting Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and top commanders of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC).

 Iran on Tuesday warned that the new US sanctions meant “closing the doors of diplomacy” between Tehran and Washington.

Meanwhile, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani on Tuesday denounced the Trump administration as being “afflicted by mental retardation.”
