New York, IRNA – Despite ongoing negotiations between Tehran and Washington, the Office of Foreign Assets Control (O.F.A.C.) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury has announced new sanctions against an Iranian company and three individuals.
Fuya Pars Prospective Technologists, along with Mohammad-Reza Seddighi-Saber, Ahmad Haghighat-Talab, and Mohammad-Reza Mehdipur, have been added to O.F.A.C.’s sanctions list.
