The United States believes that this network helps Iran to finance its nuclear and missile programs and support paramilitary groups all over the Middle East.
Sanctions cover citizens of Iran and some organizations in the United Arab Emirates and Hong Kong, with at least two of them related to the Iranian state tanker company.
The US Ministry of Finance states that the network companies in the network are accounting in different currencies in different banks to facilitate payments to the Podancial Iranian organizations selling Iranian oil.
“The shadow banking system of Iran is a vital source for the regime through which it receives income from the sale of oil, transfers money and finances its destabilization activities,” the US Finance Minister Scott Bessent commented.
In recent months, US President Donald Trump has increased pressure on Iran, introducing several rounds of sanctions against his oil industry and threatening to punish foreign companies that continue to buy Iranian oil.
This happens against the backdrop of Trump administration to conclude a agreement with Tehran, which would limit the Iranian nuclear program.
