Iran vows to continue its oil exports under any conditions.
Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif while talking to his British counterpart Jeremy Hunt in a telephone call urged Britain to quickly release the Grace 1 oil tanker, which was seized by British Royal Marines off the coast of the British Mediterranean territory of Gibraltar on suspicion of violating sanctions against Syria.
Meanwhile, UK foreign Minister Jeremy Hunt said, the call with Iran’s foreign minister was constructive and Mohammad Javad Zarif had told him that Iran wanted to resolve the issue and is not seeking to escalate tensions.
