Any gasoline seller that stops providing the fuel to Iran will be "eliminated" from the Islamic Republic's list of suppliers, Iran's oil minister said in remarks published on Thursday.
The United States and its European allies are exploring ways of targeting fuel imports into Iran if the OPEC member continues to press on with its nuclear ambitions.
"If the suppliers of gasoline avoid exporting it to Iran ... they will be eliminated from the National Iranian Oil Company's list of suppliers," business daily Abrar-e Eqtesadi quoted oil minister Massoud Mirkazemi as saying.
