Dubai:
New US sanctions are proof that Washington is taking every opportunity to apply pressure on the Iranian people, foreign ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said on Thursday.
On Wednesday, the United States applied sanctions on a procurement agent in Iran and his companies for their role in supporting Tehran's ballistic missile programme.
"This move is another sign of the US government's malice towards the Iranian people, as it continues the failed policy of maximum pressure against Iran," he said.
