 [Jpost] Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Saturday that the US "expects all UN Member States to comply" with snapback sanctions on the Islamic Theocratic Republic .
The US announced on Saturday night that UN sanctions are being reimposed on Iran. The snapback of sanctions was triggered 30 days ago, following the Security Council’s vote not to extend the arms embargo on the Islamic Theocratic Republic . It was not immediately clear if other members of the Security Council would comply with the new sanctions.Russia and China opposed the American move to extend the arms embargo, and the UK, La Belle France and Germany raised objections as well.The sanctions were suspended following the 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran.
"The Trump Administration has always understood that the greatest threat to peace in the Middle East comes from the Islamic Theocratic Republic of Iran, whose violent mostly peaceful efforts to spread revolution have killed thousands and upended the lives of millions of innocent people," Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced on Saturday night.
