Sputnik - Iran will retain stable oil exports at the level of 2 million barrels per day even after the imposition of US sanctions, as there is always a buyer for Iranian oil, spokesman for the Iranian parliament's Presidium, Behrouz Nemati, told Sputnik on Saturday.



"There are no fears about�exports, two million barrels with�or without�sanctions will continue. And if some of�the buyers leave, there are others. Anyway, the exports are stable at�2 million barrels," Nemati said.


On Wednesday, Iranian Petroleum Minister Bijan Zangeneh told reporters that Iran had reduced its exports to�2.5 million barrels per day from�2.8 million barrels per day in�May.

The statement followed May's US decision to�withdraw from�the Joint Comprehensive Plan of�Action (JCPOA), an agreement with�Iran on�its nuclear program reached by�the six international mediators (Russia, the United States, the United Kingdom, China, France, Germany) in�2015.

Apart from�the withdrawal from�the deal, US President Donald Trump announced the restoration of�all sanctions against�Iran, which could negatively affect, among�other things, the country's oil sector.
