Sanctions have no effect on Iranian progress

IRNA quoted Mr Ali Akbar Mehrabian Iranian minister of industries & mines as saying that imposition of sanctions on Iran for its peaceful nuclear activities had no effects on the progress of the country's industries.

Mr Mehrabian said that the value of Iran's currency has increased compared to foreign exchanges. He added that "The enemy resorted to various ways to stop the progress of Iran's industries, however, the country has continued its way forward stronger than ever."
