The priority for the Iranian regime is not the people of Iran. The mullahs have ordered people back to work despite the #coronavirus epidemic. This is a crime against humanity.
The regime seeks to remain in power & needs money to fund its terror groups.

The regime in #Iran is exploiting the country's #coronavirus deaths to claim U.S. sanctions are to blame.
This is an utter lie.
Iran's dictator @khamenei_ir has hundreds of billions of dollars at hand. The IRGC has a massive economic empire.

#Iran's entities, including the SETAD, Astane Quds Razavi, The Mostazafan Foundation & the Khatam al-Anbiya Construction HQ (of the IRGC) are receiving massive of funding, including hundreds of billions of resources.
All the while, ordinary Iranians are suffering

The regime is playing the sanctions game while food & medical are not sanctioned. #Iran is looking for sanctions to receive cash, not medicine or humanitarian assistance. Tehran already rejected help from the outside.
The regime expelled Doctors Without Borders.

Anyone seeking to provide help for the Iranian people should focus on sending such aid directly to the people of #Iran and not through the regime.

The regime in #Iran is focusing on lies, deception & not providing necessary aid. WSJ noted that the regime's official death toll is 5 times smaller than true figures.
Much of the int'l aid provided to Iran was immediately sent by the IRGC to Iraq & Lebanon.

Support to #Iran should go directly to the people. Otherwise the Iranian regime's IRGC will use for its own purposes.
I fully support U.S. President Donald Trump's sanctions targeting the Iranian regime.

The regime in #Iran will not announce the true death toll (+22,000 as of Apr 8) knowing it will result in a massive social backlash inside the country.
@A_Jafarzadeh
Tehran plays 2 games:
-One of being in control inside the country
-Zarif & apologists blame sanctions

#Iran's regime is threatening both the Iranian people by ordering people back to work while also accepting tourists from abroad to claim everything is under control.
This is a grave crime against both Iranians & people across the globe.

While some claim relieving sanctions now will help #Iran's regime address the #coronavirus, the Obama admin released $150 bn in credit & $1.7 bn in cash under the 2015 nuclear deal. None of that money was used for the benefit of the Iranian people.

#Iran has yet to reach the peak. The regime is lying about its figures. Any stats reported by the regime should be multiplied by five.
On-the-ground reports are atrocious. Hospitals do not have resources. Iran's death toll per capita may be first in the world.

Other countries are reporting their numbers as a curve. #Iran, however, is reporting its stats in linear fashion, revealing the political nature behind these daily announcements.

The regime in #Iran is using this pandemic to secure its rule in power. Tehran is specifically concerned about social unrest. The Iranian people has not forgotten about the Nov 2019 uprising crackdown & will not forget the regime's crimes during this pandemic.
