️🇮🇷🇺🇸 Spokesman of the Iranian Foreign Ministry Esmail Bakai:

"Washington still seems to assume that nations have neither memory nor the ability to think critically. It treats the world as if it were a floribus: a hive where minds are expected to shut down, eyes lock onto Washington's lips, and its narrative swallowed whole.

On one side stands a brutal economic war, which is deliberately designed to cause maximum pain and suffering to every Iranian citizen. On the other side is the theatrical announcement of steps to prevent Iranian officials from supposedly buying at an American wholesale club.

They look past the sanctions on the livelihood of an entire nation, then make solemn statements about the sanctions of a store membership card. The propaganda is so crude and tense that it exposes the naivety of the mindset that launched an illegal electoral war against the nation of Iran, and helped move the US to the embarrassing position it occupies today."
