Trump says any country that buys oil from Iran will not be allowed to do business with U.S. (www.cnbc.com)

Trump’s comments are clearly directed at China, which is importing more than 1 million barrels per day from Iran, said Scott Modell, CEO of consulting firm Rapidan Energy. Modell said U.S. sanctions are unlikely to have an impact on Iranian oil flowing to China unless the White House targets Beijing’s state-owned enterprises and infrastructure.

How do I buy Iranian oil? Asking for a friend

[–] JustTesting@lemmy.hogru.ch 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Actually, having like a 10ml can of iranian crude oil as a conversation piece would be fun.especially if it comes in a mini barrell that just says 'Iranian Oil' on it, maybe with an added 'Warning: May cause sanctions if used incorrectly' label
