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.

Quick Glance: US to Reinstate Sanctions on Venezuela’s Oil and Gas Sector
- The United States will reimpose sanctions on Venezuela’s oil and gas sector due to the Maduro government's failure to allow 'an inclusive and competitive election' to take place.
- The US government decided not to renew the temporary authorization (General License 44) that allowed transactions with Venezuela's national oil and gas sector without fear of sanctions, citing the Maduro government's failure to uphold key areas of the 'Barbados Agreement.'
- While the impact of revoking the authorization could not be quantified, another authorization from 2022 allowing the oil company Chevron to resume limited resource extraction operations in Venezuela will remain in place.
- Despite reinstating sanctions, a US official emphasized that this should not be seen as a final decision on Venezuela's electoral capabilities, and efforts to support a better future for the country will continue.
