International Community Counters Trump over U.N. Iran Sanctions
---------------------------------------------------------------

The Trump administration will reportedly announce sanctions on over two
dozen people and entities related to Iran's nuclear program as early as
today. This comes after the U.S. unilaterally declared the reimposition
of all U.N. sanctions against Iran. But the U.N., including fellow
Security Council members and allies Britain, France and Germany, all say
international sanctions against Iran have not resumed, and the U.S. has
no legal standing to enforce such a move. Trump withdrew the U.S. from
the Iran nuclear agreement in 2018.
