Iran has very far with the sanctions, self reliance. Good job Iran.

 

[longbrained]

Well it is not surprising since Iran has the world's fastest growth rate in science and technology and its growth rate in science is almost twice that of Turkey. It is predicted with this growth level, Iran will surpass Canadian science and technology level by 2017 less than 5 years from now. Congrats to Iran.

no surprise here... congrats to Iran. if we speed up the R&D in our country some more, we migt have a chance to catch up with you!

You know very well that sanctions are for civil technology as well.

It's only that this time around the sanctions are being violated openly.

All services and parts are being organised but with extra price.

Sanctions against Iran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

passed on 31 July 2006. Demanded that Iran suspend all enrichment-related and reprocessing activities, but did not invoke Chapter VII or impose sanctions

passed on 23 December 2006. Banned the supply of nuclear-related materials and technology and froze the assets of key individuals and companies related to the program

passed on 24 March 2007. Imposed an arms embargo and expanded the freeze on Iranian assets.

passed on 3 March 2008. Extended the asset freezes and called upon states to monitor the activities of Iranian banks, inspect Iranian ships and aircraft, and to monitor the movement of individuals involved with the program through their territory.


passed on 9 June 2010. Banned Iran from participating in any activities related to ballistic missiles, tightened the arms embargo, travel bans on individuals involved with the program, froze the funds and assets of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines, and recommended that states inspect Iranian cargo, prohibit the servicing of Iranian vessels involved in prohibited activities, prevent the provision of financial services used for sensitive nuclear activities, closely watch Iranian individuals and entities when dealing with them, prohibit the opening of Iranian banks on their territory and prevent Iranian banks from entering into relationship with their banks if it might contribute to the nuclear program, and prevent financial institutions operating in their territory from opening offices and accounts in Iran.



Majority of sanctions are on military technology/finances and nuclear activity, the early dated to 2006, some sanctions are not even binded especially on scientific activity, so please spare me your usual bullshit on how Iran despite all "sanctions" managed do this and that, Iranian had all the access to key knowledge and technology to do whatever they wanted to do.

Some people are idiots,some people pretend to be one and i think you are in the second group.

Apparently you are the first.
