US imposes sanctions on Iranian and Russian entities for election interference activities

ai generated text

The United States has imposed new sanctions on entities in Iran and Russia, targeting the Cognitive Design Production Center linked to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Russia's Center for Geopolitical Expertise. These sanctions are aimed at disrupting efforts by entities in Iran and Russia to "stoke socio-political tensions" and interfere with democratic processes. The US Treasury Department has alleged that affiliates of Iran and Russia worked to sow division during the 2024 elections, which Iran and Russia have denied.
