Trump Vs Iran: Indian Couple In Deep Trouble, But Why?
| The Donald Trump administration has imposed sanctions on an Indian businessman, his wife and several companies linked to them over alleged assistance to Iran in evading international restrictions on oil exports. The US Treasury announced the fresh sanctions against individuals and companies based in India and Turkey, accusing them of using fraudulent maritime registrations to facilitate Iranian oil trade. Washington has warned that it will continue targeting entities supporting Iran's oil, aviation and fuel supply networks. The move sends a strong warning to businesses with alleged links to Iran, including those operating internationally.
It is already known that the Donald Trump administration has been taking several extreme measures with regard to the imposition of sanctions on the Iran administration. Now we are hearing that this after effect is reaching the Indian population as well.
According to the latest establishment, an Indian couple and multiple other foreign companies operating in the United States have been imposed with sanctions by the Trump government.

Going into the story, the US Treasury issued fresh sanctions on Wednesday against companies and individuals based in India and Turkey for their support of Iran, warning that it would continue to go after anyone who supported the Iranian government.
Apparently, these individuals have been contributing to the Iran aviation and fuel supply sector which is against the interests of the United States government to a large capacity. So the United States, treasury has decided to impose sanctions on those individuals.
This is going to be the way forward for not just Indian business operators in the United States, but also other foreign groups who contribute to the Iran government. President Trump has been ruthless with his approach on this matter, and he is not likely to slowdown in the near future either.
This can be considered a pretty strong warning to the Indian business population in the United States as working closely with Iran can invite the stress from the United States leadership.
