Quick Glance: Israeli Push for Sanctions Against Iran Amid ‘Diplomatic Offensive’

Israel has launched a “diplomatic offensive” against Iran, urging sanctions against the Islamic republic.

Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz has called on 32 countries to impose sanctions on Tehran as Israel considers a military response to Iran’s attack.

Israeli military sources reported intercepting 99 percent of aerial threats with assistance from the United States and allies, causing only minor damage.

Tensions are high as Israel ponders its reaction to Saturday's attack while Germany calls for new sanctions related to Iran's drone supply to Russia for use in Ukraine.

Venezuela criticizes return of US sanctions and claims it did not pledge to let opposition leader run in election

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.

Quick Glance: Yellen warns of further sanctions in response to Iran's increasing activities

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warned of potential global economic damage from rising tensions in the Middle East and pledged that the U.S. and its allies won't hesitate to use their sanctions powers to address Iran's 'malign and destabilizing activity' in the region.

The fast-rising tensions between Iran and Israel and the potential implications of escalation on the global economy are at the forefront of the spring meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank.

Yellen announced additional sanctions actions against Iran in the coming days and expressed support for liquidating roughly $300 billion in frozen Russian Central Bank assets for Ukraine's reconstruction.

Another major focus of this year's meetings will be Chinese industrial policy, which Yellen believes poses a threat to U.S. jobs and the global economy. She plans to meet with Chinese counterparts to identify potential areas of cooperation and address concerns.

North Korea, Belarus deputy foreign ministers agree to strengthen ties

Quick Glance: North Korea, Belarus strengthen ties

North Korean officials met with a delegation from Belarus to deepen cooperation and criticized the U.S. for attempting to increase 'lawless' sanctions pressure.

During the discussions, Belarus' Deputy Foreign Minister Evgeny Shestakov and his North Korean counterpart Lim Chun Il discussed bilateral cooperation in various sectors and mutual support on the global stage.

Kim Son Gyong, vice minister for International Organizations of the DPRK Foreign Ministry, criticized Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, for her trip to South Korea and Japan, labeling the UN sanctions against the country as 'lawless'.

In contrast, Russia has opposed the annual renewal of the multinational panel of experts that has monitored the implementation of UN sanctions aimed at curbing North Korea's nuclear and missile programs over the past 15 years.
