US Sanctions Three Turkey-Based Entities Over Iran Financial Links
The US Treasury Department imposed sanctions on three Turkey-based entities linked to Iran, including Golden Global Investment Bank and its subsidiaries, aiming to disrupt Iran's financial networks. The Treasury accused these entities of facilitating transactions for Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and enabling the transfer of oil revenues. This move is part of the broader 'Operation Economic Outcast' to increase economic pressure on Iran and push it back to negotiations. The sanctions follow similar actions against Egypt's Banque Misr for Iran-related dealings.
