    By violating international law:

    https://www.isjq.ir/article_145298.html?lang=en

    According to Articles 1 (2), 2 (1) and 74 of the UN Charter, the imposition of unilateral sanctions violates the principles of the Charter, the principle of equality of states, the development of friendly relations and good neighborliness, and consideration of each other’s interests and well-being.

        The UN Charter is the foundational document that the UN is built on. UNCLOS is a convention (one that, for what it’s worth, the US never ratified). The PCA is a non-UN body that’s sometimes used as an arbitration mechanism between two parties to avoid conflict.

        Do you have any grasp on international law, or do you just enjoy whataboutism?

            sigh

            don’t engage with idiots, don’t engage with idiots, don’t engage with idiots…

            I’d recommend you read a tiny bit into UN history and what the UN Charter actually is.
