Today, the Ministry of Finance’s Foreign Assets Control Agency (OFAC) has designated five Iran-based entities and one individual to support key entities managing and overseeing Iran’s nuclear program, including the Iranian nuclear organization (AEOI) and the AEOI-controlled Iranian Centrifuge Technology Company (TESA).
The US sector has continued to accuse Iran of trying to acquire nuclear weapons, but so far, the United Nations UN Nuclear Surveillance (IAEA) has confirmed so far that Iran’s nuclear program is peaceful. The entire Iranian nuclear program is under IAEA inspector’s 24/7.
Sanctions come days before Iran and US representatives lift indirect talks in Oman over Iran’s nuclear issue and repressive sanctions on Saturday.
