Leader of Iran Khamenei has banned from importing Coronavirus vaccines from the US and Britain, he said that the Western powers “untrustworthy,” as the infection spreads in the Middle East’s hardest-hit country.

He said in a live televised speech, that the prospect of the two Western countries, long-time adversaries of the Islamic Republic is to possibly seek and spread the infection to other countries. He added however that Iran could obtain vaccines “from other reliable places.” He gave no details, but China and Russia are both allies of Iran.
