Spokesman: US not to benefit from its anti Iran ploy

Washington would never benefit from this ploy to stop Iran’s scientific progress, Bahram Qasemi added.

Qasemi termed the US move as ‘provocative, illegal and without any justifiable reason and another clear sign of the US administration’s hostility to the Iranian people.

The US government on Friday added 10 Iranian citizens and one institute to its list of sanction on charges of cyber attack against American universities and some other entities.
