Biden announced: Sanctions will be applied
US President Joe Biden announced at a White House press conference that they will impose sanctions on former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and the Iranian Intelligence Ministry.
In his speech, Biden also referred to the release of five American citizens in Iran. Stating that citizens “finally returned to their countries,” Biden thanked South Korea, Switzerland, Oman and Qatar for the role they played in this process.
The US president especially thanked the Sultan of Oman, Haitham bin Tarik, and the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad, saying they both facilitated the prisoner exchange deal with Iran.
