More Customers for Iran Oil Despite US Spite

The eight traditional customers that got a waiver from the US to continue importing specific quantities of Iranian oil are fully compliant with the sanctions, Iran's deputy oil minister for trade and international affairs said on Saturday.
“China, India, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey, Greece, and Italy that were granted waivers from America to purchase Iranian oil do not buy even one barrel more from Iran for fear of provoking US wrath,” Amir Hossein Zamaninia was quoted as saying by Shana.
The United States withdrew from a nuclear deal with Iran last year and imposed new economic sanctions on Tehran to force it to “come back to the negotiating table  for a new deal.” However, fearing a serious negative impact on global oil supply and prices, Washington allowed eight customers to keep buying Iran’s crude for six months.
