The U.S. needs to follow through with devastating sanctions on Iran. America can stop Iran with these new sanctions, such as increasing the cost to conduct business in Iran. We can use this sanction to make businesses leave Iran, and causing their economy to plummet. This would devastate the nation, and would cause them to be stopped in making nuclear weapons due to a lack of funding. Benjamin Netanyahu said that “Iran was racing forward to produce a nuclear weapon,” and “This means not moderate sanctions, or watered-down sanctions,” he said. “This means crippling sanctions and these sanctions must be applied right now.” That is exactly what increasing the cost to conduct business in Iran would do…cripple them severely.
Another way the world can stop Iran by using sanctions is by sanctioning the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, which are in control of the nuclear facilities. If China and Russia, the main suppliers to Iran, would sanction the guards then, the guards could not control the facilities and an outer power would be able to buy it out. The country that would buy it out would be a stable country such as the U.S. or France. A brilliant strategy that would only work with the help of China an Russia. The U.S., China, Russia, and France need to attack Iran with powerful sanctions.
