That's an insane take, to the point I thought you're being sarcastic.
He's not asking Americans to overthrow their government. He's not even asking Americans to lift the sanctions (as he said explicitly). In fact, he's not asking for anything, just recollecting his experiences.
More importantly, you're comparing asking a (poor) country citizens to overthrow their own government with a (rich, western) country... lifting an economic policy that doesn't even work?

Sanctions -> Pressure on the people -> People are miserable -> People rise up and revolt against their Government -> Government is replaced with Rainbows and Unicorns.
