US sanctions Sweden-based Kurdish gang leader over Iran-linked attacks
|
[Rudaw] The United States on Wednesday imposed sanctions on Rawa Majid, the Kurdish leader of Foxtrot Network, a transnational criminal organization based in Sweden over his reported involvement in arms and drugs trafficking and cooperation with Iran
 ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
in "attacks on Israeli and Jewish targets in Europe."
"The United States is sanctioning the Foxtrot Network, a transnational criminal organization, and its runaway leader Rawa Majid," the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio
...The diminutive 13-year-old Republican U.S. Senator from Florida, Secretary of State in the second Trump administration...
said in a statement, adding that the network "is involved in arms trafficking and contributes to rising violence in Northern Europe, including shootings, contract killings, and assaults."
Rawa Majid, widely known as the Kurdish Fox, is an Iranian-born Kurdish-Swedish national wanted on multiple charges in Sweden. His group is accused of orchestrating drug trafficking, arms smuggling, and violent mostly peaceful crimes such as shootings and contract killings across Northern Europe.
The statement additionally accused Iran of "leveraging the Foxtrot Network to carry out attacks on Israeli and Jewish targets in Europe, including the Israeli Embassy in Stockholm, Sweden, in January 2024." It said Majid had cooperated with the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and Security that are already under US sanctions.
According to Rubio’s statement, the US State and Treasury Department "will continue to expose and impose costs on the Iranian regime for its malign activities as part of the [US President Donald] Trump Administration's renewed maximum pressure campaigns."
Trump in early February restored the maximum pressure policy against Iran, arguing that Tehran is "too close" to obtaining nuclear weapons, but expressed interest in negotiating a deal with Iran.
In late February, the US Treasury Department imposed new sanctions on over 30 individuals and vessels for their "involvement" in importing Iranian petroleum-related products.
Amid the increased US sanctions, Iran’s foreign minister said on Monday that his country will "not even consider" negotiating under pressure and intimidation. The Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei
...the very aged actual dictator of Iran, successor to Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini...>
in February slammed negotiations with the US as "unwise."
