EU to impose more sanctions on Iran for military aid to Russia

The EU is preparing additional sanctions against Iran over military aid Tehran has provided to Russia as well as its violent crackdown on protesters, according to people familiar with the matter,  reported from Bloomberg.

The travel bans and asset freezes would be imposed on 21 individuals and entities over the repression of protests, with 10 listings over the deliveries of drones to Russia used in its war in Ukraine, said the people, who asked not to be named because the preparations are private. 

The measures are expected to be signed off by EU foreign ministers gathering in Brussels on December 12 but could always face last-minute push-back by some member states, the people said. The bloc’s foreign ministers are also due to discuss the stalled negotiations to curb Iran’s nuclear program.
