U.S. Announces Sanctions to Combat Illicit Traders of Iranian Oil
(U.S. State Department) Deputy Spokesperson Thomas Pigott - The State Department said Friday it is sanctioning 15 entities, two individuals, and 14 shadow fleet vessels connected to the illicit trade in Iranian petroleum, petroleum products, and petrochemical products. So long as the Iranian regime attempts to evade sanctions and generate oil and petrochemical revenues to fund oppressive behavior and support terrorist activities and proxies, the U.S. will act to hold both the Iranian regime and its partners accountable.
