As Trump administration tightens screws on Iran, top UN official cries foul
From the article:
"A top U.N. expert is taking aim at the Trump administration’s efforts to tighten the screws on Iran’s theocratic regime, saying that U.S. sanctions are “illegitimate” and are driving Iranians into poverty.
The Trump administration has been criticized by members of both the U.N. and E.U. leaders for its decision this month to reimpose sanctions of the Islamic regime. The sanctions targeted Iran’s financial, automotive and precious metals industries and will also target its oil and banking system in November.
A senior administration official told Fox News this month that the restored sanctions are designed to constrict the revenue Iran uses to fund “terrorists, dictators, proxy militias, and the regime’s own cronies.” "
As to what the UN and EU think -- Who cares. We have in the past paid close attention to wherir thoughts and feelings and where did it get us. Essentially they "Spit in our face and maligned the USA at every turn."
If they want the US to listen to them, say something that is not self-serving and anti0US.

The way I see it they will have no issue with parking tickets.

So why should the US be concerned about "poverty" in Iran?
After all, Obama gave them billions in cash. What did the mullahs use it for? To buy more centrifuges?
The UN is a totally useless institution that votes against the USA at every possible turn.
The mullahs regularly call the US the "great Satan", flavored by "Death to America".
Should we be concerned about how they live?
and to take their diplomatic immunity to, say, someplace like Vlad the Implaer's Castle in Transylvania.
The building they vacated could be used for comic book conventions or, oh, I know, a clown college.
