Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast underlined that the western sanctions and boycotts cannot paralyze Iran as the nation never bows to pressures, FNA reported.
The US and its western allies' new sanctions against Iran will not discourage the Iranian nation, Mehmanparast said on Wednesday, and added that the government is finding ways to bypass sanctions' impacts.
He said all anti-Iran moves are because of the Islamic Republic's peaceful nuclear program while enemies have not been successful in providing any documents proving Iran's deviation from peaceful purposes.
The US and its western allies allege that Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapons program while they have never presented corroborative evidence to substantiate their allegations against the Islamic Republic.
Iran says its nuclear program is a peaceful drive to produce electricity so that the world's fourth-largest crude exporter can sell more of its oil and gas abroad. Tehran also stresses that the country is pursuing a civilian path to provide power to the growing number of Iranian population, whose fossil fuel would eventually run dry.
Iran is under four rounds of UN Security Council sanctions and the unilateral western embargos for turning down West's calls to give up its right of uranium enrichment, saying the demand is politically tainted and illogical.
Iran has so far ruled out halting or limiting its nuclear work in exchange for trade and other incentives, saying that renouncing its rights under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) would encourage the world powers to put further pressure on the country and would not lead to a change in the West's hard-line stance on Tehran.
