UNITED NATIONS (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 26th September, 2018) The European Union is strong on rhetoric and weak on follow through, US National Security Advisor John Bolton said in response to the bloc's announcement to create a mechanism for financial transaction with Iran that would bypass US sanctions.
"The European Union is strong on rhetoric and weak on follow through," Bolton said and added that no time frame has been established for creating the mechanism. "We will be watching the development of this structure that doesn't exist yet and has no target date to be created. We do not intend to allow our sanctions to be evaded by Europe or anybody else."
