The new European sanctions are targeted.
The new sanctions announced by the European Union against 29 individuals and 3 entities demonstrate the EU’s targeted and directed efforts to compel Iran to change its behavior towards its citizens.
From a sanction policy perspective, the EU’s new approaches specifically involve imposing sanctions that alter the fate of the targeted individuals and entities. It should be noted that the international presence of companies and individuals is limited due to these sanctions. In particular, individuals who hope for important positions in the future and tech companies that need interaction with Western companies and institutions for their survival will be seriously affected by these sanctions.
It is not without reason that one of the sanctioned companies hastily issued a statement.
