Tehran, September 20 (RHC)-- Iran's president says the Islamic Republic will never give in to Washington's bullying after the United States claimed it has restored all UN sanctions against Tehran through the so-called snapback mechanism of a landmark nuclear deal clinched in 2015, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Addressing a cabinet session on Sunday, Hassan Rouhani added that the U.S. so-called maximum pressure on the Iranian nation in political and legal sectors has led to Washington's "maximum isolation."

"We have always said that there is only one way of dealing with the Iranian nation and that is to show respect for the rights of the Iranian nation and speak to it with the language of respect," he emphasized.

"As Iran's president, I announce that if the U.S. wants to continue its bullying and take a practical step in line with its incorrect assertion -- which has been rejected by all parties -- that it has been able to restore [anti-Iran] resolutions [passed by the UN Security Council], he will be faced with our categorical response," Iran's president said.

"It is quite clear that Iran has never yielded to U.S. bullying at any juncture and will stand against the U.S. bullying at this juncture as well," he added.
