Deal to ease sanctions may benefit Iran's Revolutionary Guard
A potential agreement between Washington and Tehran to end hostilities could lead to sanctions relief that benefits the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which has built a large economic presence across multiple sectors in Iran.
Emerging outlines of a deal between Washington and Tehran to end their conflict may result in sanctions relief that benefits the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The IRGC has built a large economic presence in Iran, spanning oil, construction, shipping, telecommunications, and ports, having expanded significantly under years of sanctions. According to economictimes.indiatimes.com, the IRGC is uniquely positioned to capture a significant share of financial gains from renewed oil exports and foreign investment. The IRGC's terrorist designation could deter U.S. firms from engaging with it, even if sanctions are lifted.
