US to Slap Isolated Iran With New Sanctions
Quote:
The United States is getting ready to hit Iran with new, tougher sanctions,
with one top official saying Tehran now faces an "unprecedented" degree of isolation.

U.S. officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity late Friday,
said the sanctions could be unveiled as early as Monday and
would target Iran's petrochemical industry.
They said the new sanctions would seek to stop foreign companies
from investing in ventures like oil refineries.

The officials said foreign companies that violate the ban
would be cut off from access to the U.S. market,
and that European countries could introduce similar sanctions later next week.

Iran has dismissed the IAEA report.
The country's IAEA envoy, Ali Ashgar Soltanieh, said the measure will only strengthen
Iran's determination to continue its uranium enrichment activities
