Re: U.S. bans American companies from selling to Chinese phone maker ZTE
Different case. It is the old Iran sanction violation punishment reincarnated.
Not clear what is the issue this time, though considering that even thinking about doing business in Iran will put you on the banned list.
So much for USA signing up to "lift the sanctions" as in the so called joint plan of action.
Classic case of "I am altering the deal, pray that I do not alter it any further".
