The Netherlands UN ICJ: Iran - US Relations- Sanctions US ordered to halt 'humanitarian' Iran sanctions in blow for Trump - by Jan HENNOP, Danny KEMP
The UN's top court ordered the United States Wednesday to
suspend sanctions on "humanitarian" goods for Iran in a stunning setback
for US President Donald Trump.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) handed down the bombshell judgement after Iran asked it to halt economic measures that Trump reimposed after pulling out of a landmark nuclear deal with Tehran.
Judges in The Hague unanimously ruled that the sanctions on some goods breached a 1955 "friendship treaty" between Iran and the US that predates Iran's Islamic Revolution.
"The court finds unanimously that... the United States of America... shall remove by means of its choosing any impediments arising from the measures announced on 8 May to the free exportation to Iran of medicines and medical devices, food and agricultural commodities" as well as airplane parts, chief judge Abdulqawi Ahmed Yusuf said.
The court said sanctions on goods "required for humanitarian needs... may have a serious detrimental impact on the health and lives of individuals on the territory of Iran."

Trump: ‘I have decided’ on Iran deal — but won’t share yet – by Louis Nelson
President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he had
made up his mind as to whether or not the U.S. will remain party to the
Iran nuclear deal — but won’t say just yet what that decision is.
“I have decided” Trump repeated three times in response to shouted questions from reporters on whether he has made up his mind on the U.S. remaining in the Iran nuclear deal. Asked what his decision was, Trump smiled and said only that “I’ll let you know what the decision is.”
While the president has yet to make good on his campaign promise to withdraw from the Iran deal, which extracted concessions from the Islamic republic on its nuclear program in exchange for the easing of international sanctions, he has continued to rail against it.
