Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmail Baqaei has described the hostile statements of the US treasury secretary regarding the continuation of the maximum pressure policy against the Iranian people as a clear sign of the continued enmity of US policymakers towards the Iranian nation.
Baqaei said the remarks are a clear admission, on the part of US officials, to breaking the law and crime against humanity.

Referring to the failure of the policy of pressure and intimidation against the Iranian people in different periods, Baqaei said it is a mistake to test the one who has been tested, and US policymakers are not going to reach a different conclusion than what they have reached so far by repeating incorrect policies.

He stressed that the Islamic Republic of Iran's approach to international diplomacy is based on logic and mutual respect to ensure the legitimate and legal interests of the Iranian people, and any behavior or speech that is not consistent with this approach is rejected from our viewpoint.

The Foreign Ministry spokesman said the policy of pressure and intimidation against the Iranian nation is a clear violation of the principles and purposes of the UN Charter and international law and subject to international responsibility of the US government.
Baqaei added that the Iranian nation will continue to strengthen its capacities in various fields and will respond to any illegal and inhumane pressure with resistance and perseverance.
