No Sanctions on Iran

Sanctions are war by another name.
Sanctions hurt innocent people.

No poetry for the people, not as long as there is any connection to Iran anyway. Another absurd consequence of sanctions #nosanctionsoniran

[Persian Poetry in English @PersianPoetics]

Payment processors have dropped us because of our ‘Persian’ name and Iranian origin.

@PersianPoetics is a one-person project with no funding, we rely on your donations.

We’re making our own website where donations can resume, but we need help: https://t.co/9XC9L10NBT

Biden's first 18 months of Iran diplomacy

[No Sanctions on Iran @nosanctionson]

Hard to believe that these were indeed "unintended" consequences and not part and parcel of the deliberate aims of economic sanctions #nosanctionsoniran

[Barbara Slavin @barbaraslavin1]

Sanctions have helped destroy the #Iranian middle class and with it, hopes for reform. An unintended consequence with serious implications. Read new @ACIranSource @J_Heirannia https://t.co/tvBGYJbTEv

If Biden is not moved to lift the sanctions to ease the suffering of ordinary people in Iran + Venezuela, then bringing down gas prices in the US and getting the democrats some support should be incentive enough

We agree @trussliz, weaponizing people's ability to eat and meet their basic needs is unconscionable. #nosanctionsoniran

We send our condolences to the people of Afghanistan and echo the call on @potus to stop using sanctions as a weapon against civilian populations

[S. I. Afzali @SIAfzali]

Tragic moments in #Afghanistan but Afghans cannot send money to help their brothers and sisters in need. @POTUS your sanctions are making life even more difficult for people who are already suffering #EarthQuakeAfghanistan

So many stories like this, most of them untold.

[Nooshin Samimi نوشین صمیمی @nsamimi9]

my parents’ visa application has been denied. so was my uncle’s who was heading to Cambridge, UK to visit his newborn granddaughter. tell me again how sanctions and increasing political and economic isolation are only targeting Iranian government and not ordinary ppl.

[No Sanctions on Iran @nosanctionson]

By @AssalRad + @ashahshahani: "The situation in Iran exemplifies how the application of broad-based economic sanctions can cause massive harm to a state’s people and economy. U.S. sanctions predominantly hurt everyday people and undermine human rights"

We have always said "sanctions are war by another name." It seems the official discourse may be shifting toward an implicit recognition of that reality #nosanctionsoniran

[Esfandyar Batmanghelidj @yarbatman]

One of the signs that sanctions are transitioning from a tool of diplomacy to a tool of warfare is reports like this, which valorise the "nerd warriors" crafting sanctions policy in a way that we never see for diplomats.

It should make us uncomfortable!

Many parallels with Iran, including the cruel impact of US sanctions for ordinary people and some of the absurd consequences of secondary sanctions

"punitive measures spearheaded by the US, have blocked the channels for international cooperation and are a source of concern as they have hampered Iran’s efforts to combat AIDS/HIV" @iranfrontpage #nosanctionsoniran

Tomorrow at 4 PM EST I will join @87films, @DJasper_,
@AishaJumaan and @AssalRad to discuss the impact on civilian populations of broad-based economic sanctions and what needs to be done to fix foreign policy so that it doesn't hurt the most vulnerable.

U.N. special rapporteur confirms what we have known all along, that the sanctions have crippled the economy and have most impacted those with “severe diseases, disabled people, Afghan refugees, women-led households and children”#nosanctionsoniran

Exactly one year ago, we posted this #Nowruz video of ordinary Iranians sharing their stories about the hardships caused by sanctions. On this first day of the new Iranian century, we call on @POTUS to keep his campaign promise of returning to the JCPOA and lifting the sanctions.

[No Sanctions on Iran @nosanctionson]

The dark shadow of sanctions looms over #nowruz and every other day. Listen to Iranians tell you about their impact and say #nosanctionsoniran

[No Sanctions on Iran @nosanctionson]

"I am begging these people who impose sanctions.." Hear from thalassemia patients in Iran and see the faces of those who have died or are at risk of dying due to the impact of sanctions on their care #nosanctionsoniran

“sanctions hit hardest for middle class, who struggle to maintain their standard of living as inflation throws the economy into disarray & those who live in poverty, who struggle simply to survive as the price of bread skyrockets” @yarbatman @DrEricaMoret

Trump’s maximum pressure sanctions have exacerbated poverty and food insecurity in Iran. By March 2021, about 60% of Iranians were unable to meet the nutritional requirement of 2100 daily calories.
