ILIn an interview with the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), Supreme National Security Council head Mohsen Rezaee claimed that Iran has generated billions of dollars despite U.S. sanctions and the ongoing naval blockade. He reported selling over 70 million barrels of oil in the past two months and continuing daily sales to American vessels. Rezaee warned that countries participating in the U.S. 'economic war' against Iran would face retaliation, including strikes on economic targets. He accused the U.S. and Israel of deliberately inciting regional conflicts to boost arms sales, asserting Iran's non-aggressive stance while emphasizing its resolve to defend itself. Rezaee also criticized U.S. withdrawal from the region, suggesting it prompted alliances among Gulf states, and predicted Iran's transformation following recent conflicts.
