Executive agency responsible for promoting economic prosperity & ensuring financial security of the United States. Led by 79th Treasury @SecScottBessent
Today, as part of Economic Fury, Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control increased pressure on Iran and its proxy militias in Iraq by designating individuals and businesses exploiting Iraq’s oil sector and undermining the country’s security. Today’s action includes Ali Maarij Al-Bahadly—Iraq’s Deputy Minister of Oil, who abuses his position to facilitate the diversion of oil to be sold for the benefit of the Iranian regime—along with three senior leaders of Iran-aligned terrorist militias.
