Turkey says it ‘won’t accept’ US ending exemptions on Iran oil purchases

Turkey says it will not respect sanctions on oil imports from Iran after US President Donald Trump announced Washington would end waivers to the Islamic Republic’s oil customers.

“We do not accept unilateral sanctions and impositions on the issue of how we will establish relations with our neighbors,” Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu is quoted as saying by the state-run Anadolu news agency.
