Ever since the Trump administration exited the nuclear deal in 2018, Iran has stayed in the agreement while loosening its adherence to the accord by accelerating uranium enrichment.

to enforce the so-called"snapback" sanctions, since it is no longer a party to the nuclear deal.

The Trump administration says it had to act because an arms embargo on Iran is set to expire in October. Pompeo has warned about the prospect of Iran being able to purchase conventional weapons from Russia or China. Snapping the sanctions back into place would bar Iran from buying such weapons. In his statement on Saturday, he said the U.S. would"announce a range of additional measures to strengthen implementation of UN sanctions and hold violators accountable."

U.N. chief says no action on U.N. Iran sanctions due to 'uncertainty'United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told the Security Council on Saturday he cannot take any action on a U.S. declaration that all U.N. sanctions on Iran had been reimposed because 'there would appear to be uncertainty' on the issue. That’s the nicest way to say “whackadoodle delegations that say they’re exiting the agreement and then try to enforce the agreement” I ever heard. Can't US be thrown out of UN? Sure. Iran is flouting its uranium enrichment in the face of the international community and none of these people feel its bad enough to go back to pre deal levels? It seems absurd to me. A regional terrorism sponsor has more sway the a un security council superpower? Insane.

Sanctions No one in Europe is that stupid to trade with Iran and risk being sanctioned by US. The sanction reliefs are only on paper.
