UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 28 (Xinhua) — The United Nations confirmed Sunday that sanctions against Iran have been reinstated.
“In accordance with the procedure set out in paragraphs 11 and 12 of Security Council resolution 2231 /2015/, as of 27 September at 20:00 Eastern Daylight Time, all provisions of resolutions 1696 /2006/, 1737 /2006/, 1747 /2007/, 1803 /2008/, 1835 /2008/ and 1929 /2010/ shall enter into force in the same manner as before the adoption of resolution 2231 /2015/ on 20 July 2015,” the UN Secretary-General’s press service said in a statement to correspondents.
The sanctions list maintained by the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1737 has been reinstated and includes 43 individuals and 78 entities that were included on it prior to the adoption of resolution 2231.
Last month, France, Britain and Germany formally invoked a snapback mechanism that allows UN sanctions to be reimposed within 30 days if Iran is found guilty of violating the 2015 nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
On September 19, the UN Security Council failed to adopt a resolution that would have extended sanctions relief on Iran under the JCPOA. A follow-up resolution, which would have extended both the JCPOA and Resolution 2231 for six months, was also rejected by the Security Council on Friday.
