(The Hill) Laura Kelly - President Trump announced Wednesday: "I am directing the Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to notify the UN Security Council that the United States intends to restore virtually all of the previously suspended United Nations sanctions on Iran. It's a snapback." The move comes after the Security Council rejected an effort by the U.S. to extend a weapons embargo on Iran last Friday. "Thirty days after Secretary Pompeo's notification, a range of UN sanctions will be restored, including the requirement that Iran suspend all enrichment-related activities. This will also extend the 13-year arms embargo on Iran," State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus said. The administration argues that despite leaving the Iran deal, it retains the right to snap back sanctions if it believes Iran is violating the terms of the agreement. Yet a snapback of UN sanctions is unlikely to garner support from the majority of the Security Council. 2020-08-20 00:00:00Full Article
