President Donald Trump's administration has officially restored sanctions on Iran that went away with the 2015 Iranian nuclear deal.
At the same time, SWIFT, a financial messaging service based in Belgium, announced it will suspend "some unspecified Iranian banks’ access to its messaging system in the interest of the stability and integrity of the global financial system," but did not mention the US sanctions.
