On Monday, US officials imposed sanctions on dozens of individuals and oil carriers based in China, the United Arab Emirates, India and other judicial states. The measures are targeted by those accused of helping to finance Iran and support the armed groups that attacked the United States and its allies.
The Treasury and the United States approved more than 30 people and ships. Among the affected people are the heads of the Iranian national oil company and the Iranian oil parties, who were accused of facilitating the sale and transportation of Iranian oil. According to the Ministry of Treasury, the transferred tankers transport crude oil worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
This represents the second round of sanctions on Iranian oil sales Since the president Donald Trump It issued a presidential memorandum of national security, which directs the efforts of the United States to push Iranian oil exports to zero and confirm that Iran cannot be allowed to “gain or develop nuclear weapons.”
