US President Donald Trump announced an executive order placing partners in Iran’s missile and nuclear program on a massive scale.
President Trump announced on the White House home page on the 21st (local time) that he would freeze the assets of those involved in the weapons and funding of Iran’s counterparts through an “ executive order to block the assets of certain people related to Iran’s conventional weapons activities. ”
Through this order, acts such as supplying, selling and assisting Iran with related substances such as weapons or spare parts, providing technology and financial support for the manufacture of weapons, and contributing to the spread of Iranian weapons are prohibited. The assets in the United States of those who have been tried by the US ministries for having participated in these activities are frozen.
In addition, it is also prohibited to provide or contribute funds, goods or services to the sanctioned person. Entry into the United States, including immigration of individuals participating in the listed acts, will also cease at this time. Except in cases where the Secretary of State determines that it is not against the interests of the United States, agricultural products, food, medicine or medical supplies are exempt from this penalty. Additionally, transactions related to the US government or official UN business are also excluded from the scope of the executive order. We will not endanger the rest of the world by supplying missiles and conventional weapons. ” He added: “This executive order is fundamental to the implementation of the UN arms embargo against Iran. And it will significantly reduce the ability to acquire weapons to build your own troops. “
Along with the announcement of the executive order, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Secretary of the Treasury Stephen Manusin, Minister of Defense Mark Esper, Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross and National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien held a conference on joint press at the State Department.
Minister Pompeo warned in an interview that “anyone who violates the UN arms ban against Iran runs the risk of being sanctioned.” He then emphasized: “Our action today is a warning to be heard around the world.”
