The United States intends to use its own forces to fight the supply of weapons to Iran

“Regardless of the architecture of the UN sanctions on Iran, we will continue to use our powers to persuade other countries not to supply weapons to Iran,” he said at a briefing, quoted by RIA Novosti.

In September 2020, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that UN sanctions against Iran were coming into force, despite the organization's disagreement.

He noted that the United States will take action against "violators" of these sanctions.

After that, the head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borrell, explained why the United States cannot initiate the restoration of UN sanctions against Iran.
