Iran has accused the US of using its economy as a weapon to control other countries. The statement came after President Trump announced a 25% tariff on India and penalties for buying Russian oil. Iran called these steps “modern economic imperialism.” The Iranian Embassy in India posted that such actions harm nations like Iran and India. Iran’s foreign ministry said new US sanctions on its oil sector were “oppressive” and hurt its people. Spokesperson Esmail Baqaei called the sanctions illegal and a “crime against humanity.” He said the US ignores global rules and puts the world at risk with such actions. (PC: AFP)
