The United States removed Iran from its list of states subject to sanctions for being a drug producer or a major drug transit country. Iran is still subject to a host of economic and political sanctions because of its place on the State Department’s list of nations that sponsor terrorism. Last year Clinton removed Syria from the drug list, eliciting howls of protest from some members of Congress.
