The US-Iranian war has been going on for six months, and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian acknowledged in an interview with state television on 28 May that "someone says sanctions have no effect whatsoever on these people, I don't know what to say". He said that because the United States continues to impose a sea blockade on its ports, Iran's exports have decreased by 25 percent to 35 percent over the past few months. However, Reuters and AFP reported late last night that he had declared that there would be no U.S. tariffs for gasoline on any given day.
