Iran Sanctions


This report analyzes various U.S. sanctions in place against Iran, and their relationship to each other as well as to U.N. sanctions imposed since 2006 because of Iran's continued nuclear program development. A particular focus of this report is the Iran Sanctions Act (ISA), which has been the focus of differences of opinion between the United States and its European allies. Some of the congressional proposals, over the past few years, to expand ISA's application have also been the basis of discussion between the United States and other countries ("P5+1" multilateral working group on Iran-United States, France, Britain, Russia, China, plus Germany)-about possible new U.N. sanctions against Iran's energy sector. On the other hand, some tentative agreements reached during October 1, 2009 talks between Iran and the P5+1 , agreements that might ensure that Iran's nuclear program remains for civilian uses only , appear to have forestalled any immediate P5+1 move to add international sanctions against Iran. For more on Iran, see CRS Report RL32048, Iran: U.S. Concerns and Policy Responses, by Kenneth Katzman.
