US Acknowledges Ineffectiveness of Sanctions against Iran http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=9004010404

Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Undersecretary Ali Baqeri dismissed as ineffective the sanctions imposed by certain western countries against Iran, and said even Americans who have sponsored those embargoes now acknowledge that the measure is futile at the best."In a meeting in the US on the level of the effectiveness of sanctions against Iran's economy, one of the prominent American figures acknowledged that sanctions against Iran are ineffectiveness," Baqeri said on Tuesday.

He quoted the American figure as saying that Iran's economic progress is like a bus moving ahead speedily on a highway and sanctions are like a dog chasing the bus and trying to catch it. "The dog will at best reach the bus but will not be able to stop it," Baqeri said, citing the American figure. Despite the hostile policies and moves of the United States and its European allies, Iran has shown a promising trend of growth in science and economy. The US-led West accuses Iran of trying to develop nuclear weapons under the cover of a civilian nuclear program, while they have never presented any corroborative evidence to substantiate their allegations.

Iran denies the charges and insists that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only. Political observers believe that the United States has remained at loggerheads with Iran mainly over the independent and home-grown nature of Tehran's nuclear technology, which gives the Islamic Republic the potential to turn into a world power and a role model for other third-world countries.
