Moscow, November 24 (KCNA) -- The Russian Foreign Ministry recently clarified the stand of the country opposing the U.S. new sanctions against Iran.

The U.S. administration's decision to apply sanctions on enterprises in the oil industrial field of Iran, etc. is unallowable as an extraterritorial step, a violation of the international law, the Foreign Ministry said.

It noted that as the developments have shown so far, such unreasonable decision of the U.S. will make the constructive dialogue with Iran difficult.
