Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif slammed the US President Donald Trump's statement on Turkish economy in his Twitter account. "We've stood with neighbors before, and will again now," he said.

"US President Donald Trump's "jubilation in inflicting economic hardship on its NATO ally Turkiye is shameful," Zarif wrote on Twitter.

"The US has to rehabilitate its addiction to sanctions and bullying or the entire world will unite - beyond verbal condemnations - to force it to," he warned. (ILKHA)
