America and Iran's Sanction History
The United States has imposed a series of comprehensive economic sanctions on Iran for over 40 years. These sanctions began in 1979 following the storming of the American embassy in Tehran and the hostages' hostage crisis. They expanded to include asset freezes, trade bans, and restrictions on aid and weapons. The sanctions target key sectors such as energy, finance, transportation, industry, and technology, aiming to pressure Iran to cease supporting terrorism, reduce its nuclear activities, and impose restrictions on oil exports. The sanctions have led to a significant deterioration of Iran’s economy, with the currency value dropping substantially, over $120 billion in frozen assets, an inflation rate of 88%, and an economic contraction of 2.8% last year. Further declines of around 5.4% are expected this year. These are among the longest and most comprehensive sanctions in U.S. history, continually impacting Iran’s economy amidst an escalation of maximum pressure policies.
