币界网报道：The White House has imposed new sanctions on an Iranian oil smuggling network, targeting 60 companies and individuals allegedly involved in facilitating Tehran's oil exports. The sanctions aim to disrupt Iran's ability to evade existing oil restrictions and generate revenue. U.S. officials stated the network used front companies and deceptive shipping practices to sell Iranian petroleum, with proceeds potentially funding destabilizing activities in the region. The Treasury Department's action freezes any U.S. assets of the sanctioned entities and prohibits Americans from doing business with them. This marks the latest escalation in U.S. efforts to pressure Iran economically amid stalled nuclear negotiations.
