Iran will resist US sanctions as it withstood Sardasht chemical attack: Zarif

<p style="text-align:left">The Iranian foreign minister said on Saturday, June 29, that Iran would resist any US sanctions, just as it persevered during the 1980s Iran-Iraq war when the forces of the then Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein launched a chemical attack on the Iranian Kurdish town of Sardasht.

&ldquo;We persevered then, and will now,&rdquo; Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted in reference to the chemical attack on Sardasht. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ll never forget that Western world supported &amp; armed Saddam ... Security Council never condemned his gassing of our people.&rdquo;
