The UAE Cabinet of Ministers included a number of legal entities and individuals from Iran in the list of organizations supporting terrorism.
The UAE Cabinet of Ministers published Resolution No. 24 "On the inclusion of nine Iranian organizations and individuals in the list of terrorists and terrorist organizations."
This step reflects the UAE’s resolve in the fight against organizations and individuals supporting terrorism. Nine individuals and legal entities were accused of transferring cash in the amount of millions of US dollars to the special forces military unit of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) to finance his criminal activities and accomplices in the regions. At the same time, the purpose of acquiring currency was hidden.
The inclusion in the list was due to the close interaction between the UAE and the United States, which included the same organizations and individuals in the list of terrorist accomplices.
Finance Minister Stephen Mnuchin expressed his gratitude to the UAE, thanking US assistance, saying that "all countries in the world should remain vigilant and oppose Iran’s efforts to operate currency exchange institutions and finance the IRGC."
