Speaking on the sidelines of the exhibition on missile and nuclear achievements in Qazvin on Sunday, Ali Akbar Salehi underlined that sanctions will not stop Iran's progress, adding "Iranian nation since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution has been accustomed to the sanctions, and US policy is not a new issue for the country."
"Iran has achieved many successes over 40 years after the Islamic Revolution despite all the pressures, constraints, eight years of Imposed War and crippling sanctions, that have amazed Global Arrogance and enemies," he said.
The head of IAEO noted that since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution, the Iranian nation has learned to stand on its own feet despite all the sanctions, adding "thanks to sacrifices made by our dear martyrs, Iran's long-range missiles and nuclear gains have become globally well-reputed."
He said that nuclear achievements were part of Iranian nation's capabilities, achieved despite pressures and constraints.
