# Iran Maintains Oil Exports After US Cancels Sanctions Waiver
Iran's oil minister Mohsen Paknejad announced that the country's oil exports are continuing without interruption despite the US cancellation of its 60-day sanctions waiver last week. According to Paknejad, Iran's oil ministry has maintained a framework designed to neutralize the impact of the sanctions action.
The US decision to cancel the waiver represents an escalation in sanctions pressure against Iran's petroleum sector. By allowing the waiver to expire, the US is tightening restrictions on Iran's ability to sell oil on international markets, a key revenue source for the country's economy.
Iran's assertion that exports are proceeding normally suggests the government is either finding alternative channels to continue sales or believes it can sustain oil shipments despite the renewed American pressure. The extent to which Iran can maintain these exports will depend on its ability to circumvent sanctions through indirect trade routes and willing purchasers.
