Le Monde: International Banks More Cautious Over Violation of Iranian Regime's Sanctions

Big international banks are still reluctant to fund commercial and industrial contracts with the Iranian regime, worrying about US-raised legal and judicial risks associated with negotiating and trading with the Iranian regime.

“Big international banks have grown more cautious following the heavy fines imposed in 2014 by Washington on the French BNP Paribas as well as the Deutsche Bank for their violation of sanctions.”, adds the newspaper.

Le Monde maintained that “banks’ reluctance and awareness have intensified due to the distrust caused by Trump’s rise to power, as he has threatened to tear up Iran’s nuclear deal during his election campaign.”
“Structural problems are hindering Iran’s economy from growing”, adds the newspaper, “Manufacturing companies are in turmoil and production has reached rock bottom. A large part of the population have become poorer while unemployment rate is rising.”

Having Seven to Eight Million Unemployed Is a Major Challenge for the Country

NCRI - Yahya Ale Eshaq, an Iranian regime’s economic expert, has stated that having 7-8 million unemployed is a major challenge for the regime.
In an interview with the terrorist Quds Force’s ‘Tasnim’ news agency on Sunday October 30, Ale Eshaq said that “ when the bureau of statistics announces the unemployment rate, it should make it clear according to which criteria the rate has been calculated? Should someone who works for only an hour a week be regarded as a working person? A two-million youth unemployment figure does not reflect the reality. The fact is, that there are currently around seven to eight million jobless in the country.”

According to Tasnim news agency on Wednesday October 19, Ezzatollah Yousefian has said in a TV Program called ‘Titr’ that “there are managers in Tehran who by forming a housing co-operative have been engaged in housing by the sea in Anzali.”
He asked the Ministry of Agriculture to announce the names of those to whom the ministry has given building permits so that the issue be further clarified. The member of Parliament stated that “the land-use of 90 percent of the lands surrounding Tehran has been changed by housing co-operatives.“ He added: “most violations related to housing and land-use change of natural resource lands have been committed by managers and members of Parliament.” Although he didn’t reveal any names but demanded that the names of bank debtors involved in the land violations be revealed in case their verdicts are final. Yousefian added: “(I know) someone who has overdue bank debts and assumes that his name will not be revealed, but he will be brought to his knees if his name is made public as a bank debtor.” He then pointed to “someone with 100 billion Tomans in bank debt whose name no one knows.” Member of the Department of Combating Economic Corruption also complained about banks’ non-cooperation with the department and said: “some banks are avoiding any possible consequences while some others have been involved in granting loans and are not putting any pressure on their debtors.”
