That Senior State Department Official explained: such “transactions prohibited by US sanctions still in place & which we were clear we would remove as part of JCPOA. Nevertheless, as a gesture of support for Iran’s getting access, we helped on this as we will on other cases.” twitter.com/mdubowitz/stat…

“And when questioned by lawmakers about the possibility of granting Iran any kind of access to the U.S. financial system, Obama-era officials never volunteered that the specific license for Bank Muscat in Oman had been issued two months earlier.”

“Obama administration officials at the time assured concerned lawmakers that a general license wouldn't be coming. But the report from the Republican members of the Senate panel showed that a draft of the license was indeed prepared, though it was never published.”

“The license issued to Bank Muscat stood in stark contrast to repeated public statements from the Obama White House, the Treasury and the State Department, all of which denied that the administration was contemplating allowing Iran access to the U.S. financial system.”

“The effort was unsuccessful b/c US banks — afraid of running afoul of U.S. sanctions — declined to participate. Obama admin approached two U.S. banks to facilitate the conversion, report said, but both refused, citing the reputational risk of doing business with or for Iran.”

We warned about this in 2016: Dubowitz said administration's currency argument was "a bait & switch which ignores long-standing admin commitment not to greenlight Iran's access to the greenback. This is above & beyond what is required by the nuke deal.” en.annahar.com/article/344667…
