The Iranian minister also denied that US-led economic sanction has started creating problems for the Iranian exports and added that only one bank namely Sepah Bank has been affected by the UN resolution and there is no problem with the others.
Jafari accused the United States for trying to give an 'untrue and baseless' picture of Iran without any international support.
