Why it matters
These sanctions are part of the Trump administration’s “Operation Economic Outcast,” which aims to restrict Iran’s ability to sell oil and fund the Iranian regime. The Treasury stated that its actions are already impacting Iran’s economy, driving the rial currency to new lows and domestic inflation rates to around 90 percent.
Sanctions are being implemented to target Iran's shadow fleet network, following announcements of unprecedented sanctions against Iran targeting conduits that fund Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps entities.
