(MENAFN) Iran's state television, Press TV, said that the country stopped selling oil to two Greek firms over payment issues, reported Reuters.

The network added that Hellenic Petroleum and Motor Oil Hellas defaulted on their purchases and they wouldn't be able to buy more Iranian crude.

However, Hellenic Petroleum said that sanctions imposed on Iranian oil imports by the US and the EU made it impossible for the Greek refiner to meet its oil payments.

It is worth noting that as part of an international standoff over Iran's nuclear program, starting July, the EU will impose a full embargo on Iranian oil imports.
