U.S. Says UN Sanctions on Iran Have Been Reimposed. What Does That Mean?

U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration said late Saturday all United Nations sanctions on Iran have been restored and a conventional arms embargo on the country will no longer expire in mid-October.

In addition, the U.S. will sanction more than two dozen people and entities involved in Iran’s nuclear, missile and conventional arms programs, a senior U.S. official said, putting teeth behind the UN sanctions.
