US Announces More Sanctions On Iran To Support UN’s ‘Snapback’ Sanctions

Russia said on Wednesday that it will not recognize the snapback sanctions on Iran, which include an arms embargo

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Wednesday that the US was imposing more sanctions on Iran to support the UN Security Council sanctions that were reimposed after the UK, France, and Germany triggered the so-called “snapback” mechanism of the 2015 nuclear deal, an agreement the US withdrew from back in 2018...

The US secretary of state said the snapback sanctions were imposed due to Iran’s “significant non-performance” of its nuclear commitments, but the sanctions came just a few months after the US bombed Iranian nuclear facilities as part of a war that was launched amid nuclear negotiations between Washington and Tehran.

… Russia stated that it doesn’t recognize the reimposition of UN sanctions on Iran, signaling that it won’t abide by the measures, which include an arms embargo.

“We do not recognize the snapback as coming into force,” said Russia’s UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia. “We’ll be living in two parallel realities, because for some snapback happened, for us it didn’t. That creates a problem. How we will get out of it – let’s see.”

….The real question is why should the sovereign country of Iraq … have to beg the US permission to conduct business with its neighbor that is in its own interest?

Somewhere in the answer to that question, is the prime reason for why BRICS is rising.
