US Sanctions Six Indian Firms for Iran Oil Trade
The U.S. has sanctioned six Indian companies for allegedly buying and selling Iranian petrochemicals.
This means the companies can't use their U.S. assets, and U.S. businesses can't work with them.
The U.S. says the goal is to change how Iran and these companies do business, not just to punish them.
Several Indian companies, including Alchemical Solutions and Global Industrial Chemicals, have been specifically targeted because of their alleged transactions involving Iranian products.
The companies can appeal the decision.
