Following Khamenei’s remarks banning the US, British and French vaccines, Rouhani expressed his loyalty to this criminal verdict. Contrary to previous claims, he offered no prospects for procuring vaccines.
Rouhani: “There were vaccines available to us to deliver. Some companies offered (vaccines) to us, and our Health Ministry rightly rejected them. Also, some set conditions (to provide vaccines) which we have nothing to do with.”

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI): Khamenei’s Red Crescent announced a ban on importing 150,000 Pfizer/BioNtech vaccines.
