Trump cancels Iranian oil waivers

Donald Trump's government has made another important step in combating the Iranian nuclear threat:

The United States on Monday said it will next month eliminate all waivers granted to eight economies that have allowed them to buy Iranian oil without facing US sanctions, as it ratcheted up pressure to choke off all oil revenues to the Islamic Republic.

The move was immediately praised by Israel, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calling it a “very important” decision “to increase pressure on the Iranian terrorist regime.”

“We stand by the determination of the United States against Iranian aggression and this is the right way to stop it,” the statement read.

It's another positive effort when it comes to imposing economic sanctions against Iran, but let's still remember that only a raid into Iran itself that can topple their regime will truly put an end to Iran's tyranny.
