Tishwash: TV: US sanctions ahead of Iraqi officials
With the increase in violence against demonstrators in Iraq, especially in the southern provinces where dozens have fallen within one day, American sources indicated that Washington intends to impose sanctions on Iraqi officials, indicating that it will be announced within hours. According to Al Arabiya TV.
The US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, said that his country would use its legal powers to impose “sanctions on corrupt personalities that steal the wealth of Iraqis, and on those who kill and injure civilian protesters.”
The US Assistant Secretary of State for Near East Affairs, David Schenker, has suggested sanctions that Washington may soon impose against those responsible for what he described as “atrocities in Iraq”, denouncing the appalling and heinous use of force against demonstrators. link
