Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei says EU support for sanctions is ‘foolish’

Supreme Leader Khamenei was stating about how European countries that support sanctions are "Foolish" because they are going against the Tehran for the sake of the United States and by doing so, they are only putting their countries at risk. Although, Iran's currency only continues to worsen and inflation continues increase, Khamenei foresees that they will still be able to come back from this setback and "win" this war against the United States and their allies. Khamenei thinks that the EU has greater problems to focus on then if their civilian program is truly to help with curing cancer and other health issues rather than hiding an nuclear weapons program. Khamenei stated how their problems seem worse than their struggles with the sanctions and mismanagement of their government, considering the state the economies of many EU countries. It is clear that Iran is going to have to start finding alternative means of creating revenue than depending the export of raw materials.
