Intensification of US unilateral sanctions against I.R.Iran and its impact on accelerating of Covid-19

Sanctions are normally imposed on an individual, institution or country that violates international law and violates acceptable moral standards. The purpose of these sanctions is to force these institution to change their behavior. The withdrawal of the Trump government from the UN Security Council and the imposition of unilateral sanctions against Iranian government violate the UN Charter. The outbreak of Covid-19 in the world and the need for the international community to work together to curb this global crisis, prompted the Rouhani administration and others to call for the lifting of sanctions. The question in this study is when the cooperation of all countries to defeat this new virus is necessary, why US unilateral sanctions have not been suspended but rather intensified? In response to this question, the hypothesis is that the Trump administration is seeking to create more discontent among the Iranian people by increasing sanctions, thereby changing Iran's political system happen or at least changes Iran's behavior in the Middle East. The results of the research show that the theory of the effectiveness of sanctions on Iran has not been effective and the research method is descriptive-analytical.
