TEHRAN, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) — Iranian Oil Minister Gholam Hossein Nozari on Sunday dismissed sanctions on gasoline exports to Iran as “inefficient,” the semi-official Fars news agency reported.
“Iran possesses one of the greatest oil reserves in the world, therefore, no country can impose sanctions on Iran’s gasoline,” Nozari was quoted as saying.
In the meantime, “all the necessary measures for supplying the country’s gasoline needs have been taken,” he said.
Hojjatollah Ghanimifard, an official of National Iranian Oil Company, said last week that Iran is by no means concerned about any sanction on Iran’s fuel demand
