U.S. Reimposes All Sanctions Lifted Under the Iran Deal
(White House) The U.S. on Friday announced that on Monday it would restore all U.S. sanctions on Iran that were lifted under the 2015 Iran nuclear deal. Over 700 individuals, entities, vessels, and aircraft are going back onto the sanctions list, including major Iranian banks, oil exporters, and shipping companies. Reimposing sanctions will cut off revenues the regime uses to bankroll terrorist groups, foment global instability, fund nuclear and ballistic missile programs, and enrich its leaders. The U.S. is confident that energy markets will remain well supplied despite Iranian oil export reductions.
