Obama Administration Places Multitude of Iran-Related Entities on SDN List
The Treasury and State Departments on Aug. 29 released an extensive list of sanctions on individuals and entities in Iran. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) placed individuals, entities and vessels on the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List. National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said in a statement the Iran sanctions are consistent with the relief package brokered between P5+1 countries and Iran in January (see 14072525). “Our actions today and since the start of the talks are consistent with our commitments under the Joint Plan of Action, which provided limited relief of certain sanctions in exchange for Iranian steps that halted its nuclear program and rolled it back in key respects,” said Hayden.
