The United States has officially announced that from midnight some sanctions against Iran will be reintroduced that were removed after the 2015 nuclear deal which provided for the gradual and conditional suspension of international sanctions imposed on the Islamic Republic in exchange for the guarantee that Tehran will not acquire nuclear weapons (this is the main condition of the Iranian nuclear agreement, which came after 12 years of crisis between the West and Iran and at the end of two years of negotiations and signed on 14 July 2015 in Vienna by the United Kingdom, France, the United States , Russia, China and Germany).
The first tranche of sanctions concerns among other things the purchase of dollars by the Iranian government and the trade in precious metals such as gold, graphite, aluminum, steel, coal, the automotive sector and software used in the industrial sector.
Also affected by the sanctions are the transactions related to the rial, the Iranian currency, and the activities related to Iranian government bonds.
The US administration will therefore issue new sanctions on November 5 to target oil, banks and the shipbuilding and shipping sectors. While hundreds of people, entities, shipping companies and airlines that were hit by sanctions prior to the 2015 agreement will be blacklisted.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump, through an official of his administration, says he is ready to meet Iranian President Hassan Rohani at any time.
The Iranian president, Hassan Rohani, interviewed by a state TV said that Donald Trump, with the reintroduction of sanctions, wants to wage "a psychological war" against Iran and regarding the proposal for a meeting he replied that "The negotiations do not they get along well with sanctions, which affect the Iranian people and also foreign companies ”.
