America has taken many strict steps against Iran.
Washington: America took a big step on Friday after Iran fired about 180 missiles at Israel on October 1. According to reports, the United States announced new sanctions on the Iranian energy sector in response to the missile launches at Israel. Iran said that Israel fired missiles at it in response to a series of horrific attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon in recent weeks. Let us tell you that Hezbollah has the support of Iran. Hezbollah has been firing rockets at Israel since the beginning of the fighting in Gaza.
The ban imposed on companies operating in oil transportation
The sanctions announced by the United States on Friday include sanctions on Iran’s so-called “secret fleet” of ships and companies associated with it. These ships and companies are located in the United Arab Emirates, Liberia, Hong Kong and other regions of the world and are allegedly engaged in transporting Iranian oil to buyers in Asia. Apart from this, the US State Department has also nominated a network of companies based in Suriname, India, Malaysia and Hong Kong to arrange the sale and transportation of oil and petroleum products from Iran.
US National Security Agency Jake Sullivan made a statement
Let us tell you that current US law gives the right to impose sanctions on the Iranian energy sector as well as foreign companies that buy, sell and transport Iranian oil. But energy sanctions have often been a sensitive issue because restricting supply could lead to higher global prices for commodities that the United States and its allies need. US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said that the new sanctions will further deprive Iran of the financial resources it uses to finance its missile program.
The Americans will not be able to establish trade relations with Iran
Jake Sullivan also said that this ban would also impact Iranian-sponsored terrorist organizations that pose a threat to America and its friends and allies. The United States took this tough step to prevent Iranians or Iranian-backed persons from using the US financial system and to prevent US citizens from doing business with them. (language)
