Iran oil exports hit 6-year high as west prepares sanctions: Surge in crude sales to China exposes limits of US and EU attempts to rein in Islamic republic
ft.com/content/00bb5653-e9aa-4af1-8f9e-705137947b32
Quick Glance: Iran's Oil Exports Thrive Amid Rising Tensions
- Iran is exporting more oil than in the past six years, providing the economy with a $35 billion annual boost, as western countries consider tightening sanctions in response to the attack on Israel.
- The US and the EU are preparing new sanctions on the Islamic republic to deter conflict escalation with Israel, facing challenges due to Iran's successful circumvention of sanctions, especially with China being its primary customer.
- Iran has found ways to bypass sanctions, shielded from western pressure as its main oil exports go to China. Tensions have escalated since the Hamas attack on Israel, driving oil prices up by over 15%, while US efforts to sanction individual tankers carrying Iranian oil have had minimal impact so far.
- Mounting Republican pressure urges the Biden administration to take tougher action on Iran's oil sales, with criticism over perceived leniency on existing measures. Despite US strategic oil reserves being released to stabilize prices, concerns remain over the administration's stance on enforcing sanctions similar to the previous Trump administration.

Democrats clear path to bring proposed repeal of Arizona’s near-total abortion ban to a vote
apnews.com/article/arizona-abortion-1864-ban-repeal-lawmakers-fa237b1115703a0143a369c6c3683135
Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
- Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.
- Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.
- State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.
- A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.

Boeing in the spotlight as Congress calls a whistleblower to testify about defects in planes
apnews.com/article/boeing-whistleblowers-safety-senate-hearings-f8354ddddc6372e3337cd74b9ea264e3
Quick Glance: Boeing Whistleblower Calls for Grounding All 787 Dreamliners
- A whistleblower from Boeing is pressing for the grounding of all 787 Dreamliners currently in operation worldwide, as the long-haul aircraft could potentially 'fall apart' at the joints.
- Sam Salehpour, a quality engineer at Boeing, publicly expressed concerns about the Boeing 787 and 777 jets last week. In an exclusive TV interview with NBC Nightly News, Salehpour reiterated his allegations and called for all Dreamliners to be taken out of service and inspected for small gaps in the fuselage.
- He alleges that Boeing opted for cost-saving shortcuts and reduced assembly bottlenecks during the construction of the 787 and 777 jets. Salehpour warns that the fuselage sections of the 787 Dreamliner are improperly connected, with small gaps present at the joints.
- Following internal discussions with Boeing where he claimed aircraft safety was compromised, the engineer filed a formal whistleblower complaint with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in January. Boeing, however, maintains confidence in the safety of the 787 Dreamliner, stating that the allegations 'are inaccurate and do not represent the comprehensive work Boeing has done to ensure the quality and long-term safety of the aircraft.'
