The United States maintains a long-standing sanctions architecture on Iran, reinforced from February 2025 under a declared maximum-pressure policy and extended during the 2026 war to third-country refiners purchasing Iranian crude.
Iran and the Gulf subject to restrictions by The United States in the Gulf. A directional arrangement: the two parties do not hold the same position in it. Authored once and read from both ends.

摘要
United States restrictions on Iran predate the current phase by decades and are the most extensive of any state's. In February 2025 the administration directed a renewed maximum-pressure policy of sanctions and diplomacy, and through the 2026 war the architecture has been extended to third parties, including designations of Chinese refiners purchasing Iranian crude. This record carries the standing restrictive relationship. Individual designations are events, the naval measures applied to Iranian exports during the war are military action rather than sanctions, and the economic consequences belong to the module's exposure analysis — three separate things that this module deliberately does not model as one.
為何重要
The sanctions architecture sets the terms on which Iran can sell the commodity the whole region trades, and its practical ceiling is the willingness of buyers outside the measures to keep buying. That is why the Iranian export dependency on China is authored as its own relationship rather than as a line in this one.

仍然未知的事項
- The instruments are numerous, layered and repeatedly amended; this record describes the standing relationship rather than enumerating measures. The designation record belongs to the Timeline.
- The naval interdiction of Iranian exports reported from April 2026 is a military measure and is not authored here as a sanctions instrument.
- The Treasury's designations of 1 October 2026, against Iranian automotive, rail, manufacturing and metals companies, are new designations under existing authorities. They are not an amending instrument, and the standing relationship is unchanged.
