President Donald Trump’s administration admitted to Congress that Iran was still directly involved in financing terrorist activity, at exactly the same time the president was planning to give them money, Punchbowl News reported on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the State Department “told Congress that Iran\u2019s oil exports are a primary revenue source for the regime\u2019s funding of terrorist activities \u2014 just hours after the United States and Iran electronically signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to lift oil sanctions.”<\/p>\n

This 515-page report, which detailed U.S. efforts against international drug trafficking, indicated that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) \u201ccontrols significant portions of the domestic economy.\u201d The report continued that \u201cIran\u2019s oil and petroleum exports are a primary source of revenue for its armed forces, terrorist partners and proxies. The majority of Iran\u2019s oil transactions are conducted by illicit networks.\u201d<\/p>\n

All of this follows reporting that a key obstacle to Trump’s Iran deal is the difficulty of delisting IRGC as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO), which is in theory required for the full-scale sanctions relief the administration is promising.<\/p>\n

Legislation passed by Congress in 2022 about the Ukraine war contained a provision requiring that any U.S. intelligence that Iranian drones were attacking Americans would prohibit the IRGC from being delisted as an FTO for four years. Per Punchbowl’s Andrew Desiderio, “Last April, the State Dept formally told Congress that the IRGC had indeed attacked Americans with drones.”<\/p>\n

The memorandum with Iran “also sets up a $300 billion ‘reconstruction fund’ that many Republicans believe will inevitably be used for terror financing,” noted the report, as well as allowing “the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran to direct where much of that funding goes.”<\/p>\n
