US Threatens Indian and Turkish Entities Over Iran Oil Trade

What's behind this

The US Treasury has sanctioned a Chandigarh‑based couple, Suniel Kumar Sharma and his wife Jaspreet, along with a network of companies they operate, accusing them of aiding Iran’s shadow fleet by supplying false flags and certifications to move petroleum. Fresh sanctions were also placed on Indian and Turkish entities for alleged Iran‑related transactions. India’s Ministry of External Affairs said it has taken note of the measures but indicated that little can be done against firms supporting such shadow fleets.
