AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): In continuation of its dual approach and policy of maximum pressure against the Islamic Republic of Iran, the US announced that it has sanctioned 3 Iranian officials.
In line with its hostile goals against the Islamic Republic of Iran and advancing its hybrid and economic war against the Iranian nation, the US government has imposed sanctions on various pretexts which force US companies and affiliated companies based in third countries to comply with them.
Officials of the Biden government have repeatedly acknowledged the failure of the policy of maximum pressure against the Islamic Republic of Iran, but in practice, they follow the same policies because sanctions in American policy have always been used as a tool to advance its unilateralist goals.
According to the press release of the US Treasury Department, Ali Akbar Javidan, Ebrahim Kochakzaei and Allahkaram Azizi are among the officials who have been included in the US sanctions list on the grounds of human rights.
This is despite the fact that yesterday (Thursday) America sanctioned 26 companies and 5 individuals for alleged links with Iran.
Earlier, the Biden administration levied sanctions on Thursday on prominent Turkish businessman Sitki Ayan and his network of firms, accusing him of acting as a facilitator for oil sales.
