IRNA � The secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran wrote in a Twitter message that US objection to Iran�s loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) violates Jus Cogens of International Law and the Right to Health.

Ali Shamkhani said that other governments have two commitments: to stop cooperation with the violating government and to take measures to remove illegal condition.

Shamkhani said Europe has just always expressed sorrow!

�We need to be strong.�

According to the Managing Director of the IMF Kristalina Georgieva, the IMF has decided to loan $50b to countries fighting with the coronavirus via Rapid Financial Instrument (RFI).

Governor of the Central Bank of Iran Abdolnasser Hemmati said in mid-March that Iran had requested $5billion loan from the IMF in the CORONA campaign package of RFI.

Iran�s demand has been opposed by the US government.
