US Removes Sanctions on Fly Baghdad and Two Aircraft
US Removes Sanctions on Fly Baghdad and Two Aircraft
The Story in Brief
The US Treasury has removed Iraqi airline Fly Baghdad and two aircraft from its designated list, according to an update on its website. The airline had previously been described as linked to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Sanctions remain against Basheer Abdulkadhim Alwan al-Shabbani, earlier identified as the company’s owner. The Treasury gave no reason for removing the airline and aircraft, and did not outline further steps. The update distinguishes between the company and the individual under the cited sanctions measures.
The Indian Opinion
The change should be read as a limited administrative update because the Treasury has not explained its reasoning. Claims that it fully clears the airline or proves wrongdoing by the individual would go beyond the available facts. Readers should also be cautious about treating earlier descriptions of alleged links as a complete account of the current position.
