Abbas Araqchi addressing the Parliament on Sunday before the vote on the bill, said that the bill provides the other party with no chance to manipulate it, IRNA reported.

'This bill is an astute response to the enmity and wickedness of the United States against Iran,' said the Iranian top nuclear negotiator, adding that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the government are supportive of the bill.

The bill, overwhelmingly ratified today, puts under sanctions the US government and entities that are involved in anti-Iran activities, while it also supports the Iranian military and entities that are affected by the US new non-nuclear sanctions.

Araqchi added that the bill is the outcome of a series of actions proposed by the committee monitoring implementation of the nuclear deal and is much stronger than the US Senate's bill against the Islamic Republic.
