US widens Iran sanctions, putting India in the crosshairs
The TOI correspondent from Washington: Four India-based companies – and three Indian nationals associated with two of them – have been swept into the Trump administration’s new economic offensive against Iran, adding a potentially combustible new layer to the already strained US-India relations.
The US State Department on Monday named Portease Partners LLP, an India-based customs broker, for facilitating multiple shipments of Iranian petrochemical products into India while sanctioning it. Its designated partners Indrismiya Ashrafmiya Sheikh and Harish Ramachandra Rangi, both Indian nationals, were also sanctioned.
