When did the US first penalize Iran
The United States first imposed economic sanctions on Iran in 1979 following the Iranian Revolution, when a trade embargo was enacted against the Islamic Republic. This marked the beginning of a long series of sanctions against Tehran. Since then, the U.S. has employed various strategies to impose economic restrictions aimed at pressuring the Iranian regime, particularly concerning its nuclear program and regional activities. In 2018, President Trump withdrew from the nuclear agreement and imposed broad sanctions that significantly restricted Iran's economic activity, amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.
