Tehran, January 23, 2025. Iran has condemned the “unjustified, baseless and rejected” move by US President Donald Trump to reinstate Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism, stressing that such unilateral actions further weaken the rule of law at the international level.
"The United States has a long history of using such baseless and arbitrary designations, as well as defamation of independent countries as a tool to advance its own foreign agenda," Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said Thursday.
The decision, he said, is contrary to the principles and norms of international law and an excuse for the imposition of unilateral and cruel sanctions against independent nations.
“Such unilateral actions by a permanent member of the Security Council not only violate the fundamental human rights of the Cuban people but also further weaken the rule of law at the international level and promote lawlessness. They must face opposition from the international community,” he said.
