Iran’s Secretary of Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Rear Admiral Ali Shamkhani the sale of Iranian oil and the return of its money has reached a suitable and irreversible level.

“The sale of Iranian oil and the return of its money has reached suitable and irreversible levels,” Iran’s Secretary of Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Rear Admiral Ali Shamkhani said in a tweet on Wednesday afternoon.

“It does not make sense to promise to lift sanctions that have become ineffective while expecting concessions from the other side,” the top Iranian security official added, as quoted by Mehr news agency

These remarks by Shamkhani come a few days after President Ebrahim Raisi said that while his administration wants to make sure the sanctions are lifted; it has no worries over the sale of oil anymore.

Prior to that, Raisi had said that oil exports had increased by 40% as compared to the time before he assumed presidency.
