The federal government announced Monday further tapering of Canadian sanctions against Iran, accusing that country of moving a step nearer to building nuclear weapons in continued insolence of international resolutions. Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence Cannon said the sanctions, announced in co-ordination with other countries, are future to "send a strong signal to Iran: the international community is united in purpose and commitment." The announcement comes a month after Canada tightened before sanctions.
Now it appears the measures will have little, if any, impact on Canada's economic association with Tehran, consisting frequently of Canadian wheat exports to Iran. The government renowned now, as the last time, that they are targeted next to the government, not the Iranian people. Cannon said the new measures, effective immediately, prohibit dealings with chosen persons involved in nuclear, chemical, biological and missile proliferation. They ban the export of explosion sensitive goods, items for cleansing oil and gas, all remaining arms, and technology related to these goods.
They prohibit any latest investment in Iran's oil and gas sector. They bar Iranian financial institutions from establishing a attendance in Canada, and vice versa, while banning correspondent banking relationships with Iranian financial institutions and the purchase of Iranian government debit. "Iran's continued ignore for successive United Nations Security Council and International Atomic Energy Agency resolutions calling on it to comply with international nuclear obligations and dangle its enrichment activities is unacceptable Cannon said in a statement.
