Seems to be only for Chinese companies then... https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/the-iran-business-t... You really must be extremely naive to think that this has pure to do with not following the rules after all the different arguments Americans/British have produced why companies like Huwaei/ZTE/... (because America is so trustworthy) are bad. I have the feeling that they just found a stick to beat the dog. |

Trade agreements limit the size of import tariffs that can be imposed and this bypasses those limits nicely. (Not that ZTE weren't stupid to do this in the first place).
On the other hand if it suits the right company they can do what they want. For example massive amounts of vanadium were shipped from the Congo to the US during sanctions for use by the US aircraft industry.
