EU Reaches Deal on New Iran Sanctions
(Reuters) EU governments agreed in principle on Tuesday to extend sanctions against Iran by adding some 200 names to a target list of people and entities, diplomats said. The decision will be formally approved at a meeting of EU foreign ministers on Dec. 1. EU governments are also expected to discuss proposals by France and Britain for further sanctions, such as targeting the Iranian central bank. France also wants to target the oil industry.
