Iran’s Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi has announced that the US-engineered sanctions against the Islamic Republic will be gradually removed from today, March 3.

“With the measures devised by the [Iranian] diplomatic apparatus, from today we will witness the gradual removal of the sanctions,” Salehi told reporters on Sunday, IRNA reported.

“The enemies claimed last year that crippling sanctions against Iran were on their way; however, they themselves have admitted that sanctions have not had much impact in Iran.”​

“If the enemy has spent USD 100 to impose sanctions on Iran, it has not benefitted and reaped even USD 10 [in return],” the minister added.

He noted that the sanctions only caused problems for Iran in accessing foreign exchange, while the country earned USD 100 billion in revenue from oil sales every year.

Salehi said that Iran’s initiatives over the past 34 years have succeeded in tempering the adverse effects of the pressures exerted on the country.

He noted that Iran’s economy is not export-based and the value of the country’s annual economic exchanges stand at around USD one trillion based on purchasing power parity.

The Iranian minister explained that the country had succeeded in thwarting a major part of sanctions and said that Iran has 15 neighbors by land and sea and it is hard to impose sanctions on such a country.

The United States, Israel and some of their allies have repeatedly accused Iran of pursuing non-civilian objectives in its nuclear energy program. Iran has categorically rejected the allegation.

Over the false allegation, Washington and the European Union have imposed several rounds of illegal unilateral sanctions against the Islamic Republic.

This was a fight that the Americans were never going to win. The US is too bankrupt to afford a war with Iran, China and India were never going to walk away from their oil supply and let the US control the world's oil. The EU was never going to stop Iran from trading using the euro nor were they going to sanction their own companies who refused to give up doing trade with Iran. The world needs Iran's oil and business so the sanctions were never going to be successful.

Beware the elections in June then as I guarantee this is their next target. The zioUS will try to foment unrest and create another *arab spring` revolution to put in their own puppets. They will attack from the inside!

IR-Iran should “Double and Triple” inspect everything exported from any of the Western Zionists countries, if in case they are sincere (Doubtfully and very cautiously I’m saying that) start to “Ease-off” the sanctions (on themselves in actuality). That is to make sure they won’t export their “Diseased” blankets and other such infected materials that murdered more than 200,000,000 indigenous Americans. I hope that IR-Iran should never “Ease-Off” and trust these worthless blood sucking Zionists. It would certainly be a “Grave” mistake.

The American instigated sanctions will make Iran a much stronger and unified nation. It will become even more independent and self-reliant. Iran has a wonderful future with a wide array of natural resources, technological development and dedicated citizens.

This is a great NEWS...........Hope as Foeign Secretary of Iran Dr. Salehi noted, the measure taken by Iran's diplomatic apperetues do reduce the sanction IMPOSED on Iran from to day on.............Lets hope the OBTIMISM is based reality on the ground???............ But, knowing the EVIL INTENT of countries imposing sanctions, one can be VERY MUCH SKEPTICAL???

How can Iran trust US-engineered anything when USA never abides by its word, treaties and laws? Did USA decide to allow Iran to import few chewing gums? Even if all sanctions are eliminated and Iran stopped its uranium enrichment, nothing prevents USA and its puppets from sanctioning Iran again. Two reasons for this nonsense: 1. USA is going through austerity program - calling it sequestration. Sanctions on Iran's oil export have increased gas prices astronomically in USA. Obama wants to take credit for lowering prices & easing austerity in USA by easing sanctions on Iran. 2. Sanctions did not break the will of Iranians & Iran did not bend to US demands. This is Plan B for USA to overthrow Iranian government by pretending to be concerned and honest negotiator. This is exactly what they did to Libya. For decades, they enforced sanctions on Libya. When Libya went along with USA-UK, sanctions were lifted but schemes of attack continued, Libya was destroyed and puppet regime was installed.

It does not matter really. Just continue your path of growth. Iran is on successfull path regionally and internationally.

If I read between the lines. This is not west easing sanctions but Iran countering or making a way to avoid sanctions. If u have different opinion please I welcome your input on this issue.

What this is about is two fold, Israel wants to be the biggest power in the Middle East with 200 Nukes and they wanteveryone else to only be armed with Sticks and Stones. But on to the USA, they want to conquer Iran, install someone like 'The Shah Of Iran' (puppet government) then steal as much oil as they can. The USA is angry they have not been able to do their Imperialism to Iran since the 1950's, and the USA Oil Companies want Iran back again toexploit. There is no such thing as 'President Of The United States', the guy in that office is just a Marionette the people-companies with the big money pull the strings on.Once that truth gets out, oh oh !

Guess easing the sanctions is just a storyline, even if its true that means Iran has achieved sufficient level of development and military deterrence power where sanctions are totally meaningless and pointless. The more Iran gets powerful in all fields of knowledge the more sanctions will get eased. Easing sanctions from the West because they have good will to negotiate is mere lie!

Let's examin if the same sanctions were levied on the US 0 what would happen: Since oil would not be imported into that country the electricity (` uses oil) will be almost shut done, shutting down most factories and internet. The exports will be haulted and the stock market will collapse and the US as the biggest importer in the world will jack up the prices 6 folds since a US industrial worker costs 60 more than a Chinese worker. Dollar as the base currency in the world can not be used as a commodity that it is used today and its economy can not survive without virtual value of the dollar that is pumped into its economy. For all the evil the US govenment is doing the world maybe the world should think of sanctioning the US - instead of US forcing its colonist/zionist agenda on the world!

well done iran, i applaud your persistence in NOT yielding to "israeli" backed american terrorism. do not allow american businesses into your country or their embassy either. america is not really independent. they are subservient to the "israelis" and therefore can not be trusted. but im sure your great leaders know this. keep the countries that backed the illegal sanctions at arms length. do not trust this bunch of cowardly american dependents. you have stood your ground on your own against all the odds and prevailed. however be wary of the money-masters,they will never forgive you for defeating them. remove the central bank permanently.

Iran should not trust anybody. Relaxation of sanctions and "normalization of relations" could all be a prelude to invasion. It is this strategy that facilitated infiltration of the western spy agencies into the Libyan system and culminated in the invasion of Libya. Iran should look forward. Continue enriching fuel to meet your demands including manufacturing nuclear-propelled submarines. You cannot rely on unreliable foreign countries for your demands and don't allow any group of foreign countries to curb your scientific development and general progress. In this world of bullying, injustice and lawlessness, a country has to be feared in order to be respected!.

The US demise started with the thumbing their nose at the Iranian nation at the onset of the Islamic Revolution in 1979, and our beloved Imam Khomeini . The more they thumbed their nose at the Iranian people and our beloved Leader, and our elected officials the more focused we became. Sanctions or no sanctions we the Iranian people lead by our WISE Leader and governed by our elected officials will continue the path to FULL independence. Iranian government and Iranian companies should not forget that it was the Iranian companies that innovated and beat these sanctions. When the sanctions melt away DO NOT AWARD CONTRACTS TO US AND FOREIGN FIRMS "IF" THERE ARE IRANIAN COMPANIES CAPABLE OF DOING THE JOB. Iranian companies should have preferential treatment in getting government contracts. Especially in oil, security, technology and aerospace. We have to invest in ourselves FIRST.
 
and what Iran has proposed in return?
