Mahatir Mohamad says US sanctions on Iran are against international law

<p style="text-align:left">The American sanctions imposed on Iran violate the United Nations charter and international law, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad told a conference in Qatar on Saturday, December 14.

&ldquo;Malaysia does not support the reimposition of the unilateral sanctions by the US against Iran,&rsquo;&rsquo; he told the Doha Forum, also attended by Qatar Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, according to Reuters.
Malaysia and other countries have lost a &ldquo;a big market&rsquo;&rsquo; because of the sanctions on Iran, he said.
&ldquo;Such sanctions clearly violate the United Nations charter and international law; sanctions can only be applied by the United Nations in accordance with the charter,&rsquo;&rsquo; he added.
