Hi, good to have you back with us.
The United States is sanctioning Iraq's deputy oil minister over his support for the Iranian regime.
The Treasury Department says the Iraqi official has abused his position to facilitate oil sales benefiting the Iranian regime.
The Treasury also sanctioned three senior leaders of Iran aligned terrorist militias.
In announcing the sanctions, Treasury Secretary Scott Benson said the department would not allow Iran's military to exploit Iraqi oil to fund terrorism.
The measures are part of the Treasury's maximum pressure campaign against Iran, targeting the regime's ability to generate, move, and repatriate funds.
According to the department, the effort has disrupted billions in projected oil revenue.
The Treasury says the sanctions have frozen half a billion dollars in regime linked cryptocurrency and have cracked down on Iran's shadow banking networks.
