Khamenei says Iran has successfully resisted U.S. sanctions

GENEVA - Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Thursday in a new year speech broadcast on state TV that the Islamic Republic successfully resisted "unprecedented, strong" US sanctions.
Iran has faced economic hardship since US President Donald Trump withdrew from a multilateral nuclear deal last year and reimposed sanctions.
Khamenei also said that economic hardship and the fall of the currency remain top problems and that the government should confront these issues by boosting production.
