Australia has reimposed financial sanctions and travel bans on 19 Iranians and 57 entities for their role in Iran’s nuclear and missile programs.
The move from the Albanese government coincides with the unfolding conflict in the Middle East between Israel and Hamas. “The Albanese government is working deliberately and strategically to apply pressure on the Iranian regime - for failing to uphold its international obligations, including its nuclear-related commitments,” Foreign Minister Penny Wong said.
“Iran’s proliferation of ballistic and cruise missiles raises tensions in an already volatile region.” Ms Wong also called on Iran to “cease its escalatory actions in its nuclear program and recommit to full compliance with its nuclear-related commitments”.
