The United States on Tuesday imposed new sanctions on entities in Iran and Russia accusing them of aiming to stoke “socio-political tensions” and attempting to influence the 2024 U.S. election.
The U.S. Treasury Department in a statement said Tuesday’s actions build on sanctions previously imposed on the entities - a subordinate organization of Iran's Revolutionary Guard and a Moscow-based affiliate organization of the Russia’s military intelligence.
“The Governments of Iran and Russia have targeted our election processes and institutions and sought to divide the American people through targeted disinformation campaigns,” said Bradley T. Smith, Acting Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence. “The United States will remain vigilant against adversaries who would undermine our democracy.”
