  • Iran's Misuse of Civilian Aircraft
    Iran’s Misuse of Civilian Aircraft May 2020 1 Overview Iran’s civil aviation industry has historically aided the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) efforts to procure, supply and transport weapons, ballistic missile components and military personnel to its terrorist proxies and allies such as Hezbollah and the Assad regime. According to a July 2019 advisory published by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, “Iran has routinely relied upon Iranian commercial airlines to fly fighters and materiel to international locations in furtherance of Iranian state-sponsored terror operations.” The advisory warns, “U.S. and non-U.S. persons operating in the civil aviation industry face potential civil and criminal consequences for violating OFAC’s [Office of Foreign Assets Control, Department of the Treasury] sanctions programs, including by engaging in unauthorized transfers of U.S.-origin aircraft or related goods, technology, or services to Iran.” As well as the notorious Mahan Air, which was sanctioned for its terrorist activities as far back as 2011 and is now banned from landing in all of mainland Europe, a multitude of Iranian civilian airlines are listed as Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGT), including Caspian Air, Meraj Air, Pouya Air, Dena Airways, Khors Aircompany, Qeshm Fars Air. On November 5, 2018, OFAC also added Iran Air, the main civilian airline of the Islamic Republic of Iran, to the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list. All are subject to “secondary sanctions,” which apply to non-U.S. persons outside the U.S. Under the terms of the JCPOA, the United States committed to “allow for the sale of commercial passenger aircraft and related parts and services to Iran by licensing the (i) export, re-export, sale, lease or transfer to Iran of commercial passenger aircraft for exclusively civil aviation end-use.” In December 2016, Boeing entered into a contract with Iran’s national airline, the government- owned Iran Air, for 80 civilian airliners valued at $16.6 billion.

  • A Review of Iranian Aviation Industry: Victim of Sanctions Or Creation of Mismanagement?
    A Review of Iranian Aviation Industry: Victim of Sanctions or Creation of Mismanagement? By: Ali Dadpay1 Abstract Motivated the present conditions of Iranian aviation industry this paper studies the history of Iranian aviation in the past three decades and its evolution from a public franchise to a mixed industry encompassing private, semi-private and public airlines. Exploring its different aspects, it demonstrates how commercial aviation has become accessible in many parts of country through ambitious projects to construct airports in many provinces and regions. It also shows that how increasing demand for domestic air travels has made commercial aviation industry self reliant and in no need to compete in international markets. It exhibits that how government interferes in the industry daily activities through pricing policies, fuel subsidies and granting licenses to fly different routes.

  • Key Developments in Iran, July 2017
    KEY DEVELOPMENTS IN IRAN, JULY 2017 24 July 2017 | Iran Group Legal Briefings This update aims to provide a brief overview of key developments which have occurred in Iran during the past month and to highlight areas of future interest. In particular, the update covers notable developments in both the political arena and key economic sectors. POLITICAL DEVELOPMENTS US Supreme Court permits partial implementation of Trump travel ban The US Supreme Court has decided to allow the partial implementation of President Trump's travel ban. The 90-day ban on visitors from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen and 120-day ban on all refugees entering the US had been completely blocked by the lower courts following its issue by Presidential executive order on 6 March 2017. The Supreme Court ruled on 26 June 2017 that the bans could proceed but would only apply to foreigners without a "bona fide relationship" with an American entity or person. The Supreme Court did not provide further guidance on the exact meaning or scope of the phrase "bona fide relationship". However, the Court did give examples of potential exemptions to the travel ban, including those with close family ties in the US, with offers to enrol at American universities or with offers of employment with US companies. Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qassemi expressed disappointment with the Court's decision and stated that Iran would take proportionate and reciprocal action. Iran nuclear deal recertified with new sanctions imposed On 17 July 2017, the US President certified Iranian compliance with the Iran nuclear deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
