Washington: (RightNow) The United States has imposed new sanctions on institutions in China, India, Russia, and Iran. This decision comes amid rising tensions in the Middle East.

According to US officials, various institutions from these countries are sanctioned due to alleged ties with Mahan Air. Companies from China, India, Russia, and Iran are included.

Three travel and logistics companies from China and India are affected. A Russian cargo company and an Iranian startup studio are also on the list.

These sanctions could impact global trade as the affected companies play significant roles internationally. US sanctions may further complicate relations with these countries.

It is noteworthy that yesterday, the Trump administration imposed new sanctions on 8 oil tankers and 10 different institutions in Iran. These actions are part of the US policy against Iran.
