The U.S. Treasury imposed sanctions on Turkey's Golden Global Yatirim Bank on Friday.

This is a step to cut off a major financial lifeline for Iran's government.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said this action is part of an 'economic expulsion operation.'

The U.S. said the bank helped Iran move oil money from China to Turkey. It also helped turn that money into cash or gold.

It also said the bank knowingly served Iranian financial institutions. Those institutions were already sanctioned in 2022.

Secretary Bessent warned that financial institutions dealing with Iran will face sanctions.

But so far, US attempts to pressure companies that trade with Iran have not brought big results.

The Trump administration is reluctant to punish major trading partners like China or India.

Last week, the US limited the operations of an Egyptian bank in the UAE. But it did not impose formal sanctions.

This sanction came the day after a deal was reached. Turkey's state bank, Halkbank, made the deal with the U.S. Justice Department. The deal was about its violation of Iran-related sanctions.

Halkbank officials were accused of illegally moving about 20 billion dollars of Iranian oil profits.

This case caused a crack in U.S.-Turkey relations. Turkey's president personally lobbied to have the case dismissed.
