I agree with financial sanctions, but they produce limited results.

Not a financial guy, but my understanding is that the US has a lot of sanctions on Russia. One problem is that the Chinese and Iranians, thanks to Trump breaking the treaty, are not playing by those rules. Sanctions, like boycotts, don't work unless the majority abide by the move.

odd.....I seem to recall the Iranians were very upset when their assets were sealed back in the 70s.......lol remember when Obama sent them at night in bales of $100 bills?.......

No, I don't. Please refresh my memory with facts....if you have any. TIA

I do, however, remember when Trump canceled the Iranian deal freeing them up to start building nukes. LOL

Trump has long signaled he would back away from the 2015 agreement that froze Iran’s nuclear program, known formally as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. He has called it “the worst deal ever,” particularly because it isn’t permanent and would allow Iran to resume enriching some uranium after a decade and lift other restrictions after that.

But Trump has faced intense pressure from European allies to stay in the Iran nuclear deal, including from French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and British Foreign Minister Boris Johnson in visits to Washington before Trump made his decision.
 

Thanks for proving it wasn't $100 bills as you claimed. Sad.

The fact you are pushing the lie that the US paid them when, as your link proves, it was their money. LOL

US officials said cash had to be flown in because existing US sanctions ban American dollars from being used in a transaction with Iran...

...The $400 million was Iran’s to start with, placed into a US-based trust fund to support American military equipment purchases in the 1970s. When the Shah was ousted by a 1979 popular uprising that led to the creation of the Islamic Republic, the US froze the trust fund. Iran has been fighting for a return of the funds through international courts since 1981.

Why do Satan's minions always lie? Because they know stupid people will believe them. Never, ever trust an evil minion like Pmp.

Former NATO official calls Biden’s cluster bomb decision a ‘smart move,’ but urges for more

I agree with him too on the cluster bombs and more needs to be done, like the longer range rocket that can hit the Black Sea Fleet and Crimea too?!! Biden is too timid for my taste, in providing Ukraine with more advance offensive weaponry?!!

Retired Adm. James Stavridis, the former NATO supreme allied commander for Europe, praised President Biden’s decision to provide Ukraine with cluster bombs as a “smart move” but also called on the administration to “step up and provide F-16s.”

“I think it’s a smart move on the part of the U.S. to provide the cluster munitions that can help unlock that offensive going forward,” Stavridis said in an interview with radio talk show host John Catsimatidis on WABC 770 AM’s “The Cats Roundtable.”

The Biden administration announced its controversial plans to provide Ukraine with cluster munitions, which have long been requested by Kyiv, on Friday.

Cluster munitions, which are designed to spread out multiple submunitions over a wide area, are banned by more than 100 countries under a treaty due to the risk that undetonated bombs could remain an explosive hazard for civilians.

Biden defended the decision to send the munitions, claiming it was “difficult” to make and came only after he discussed the idea with allies.

“The Ukrainians are running out of ammunition,” Biden told CNN in an exclusive interview set to air on Sunday. “I think they needed them.”
