the US military was trying to buy gasoline from Iran. According to the Fars news agency, Yusefpur said, “A country that was the main actor behind fuel sanctions against Iran has now stretched out its needy hand to Iran to buy gasoline for its military forces in the regime.” He said that shows the weakness and failure of Washington in its wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and indicates the demise of the so-called superpower. He did not say where he heard that the US military sought to buy Iranian gasoline. Since 1995, it has been illegal for any American to buy any fuel from Iran.
