further sanctions to be put on Iran?

The UN needs to place further sanctions on Iran.

The three rounds of sanctions that have already been put on Iran hasn't been affecting them enough to cause them to re-negotiate with the UN and their nuclear power industry. The United States is circulating a paper on placing further sanctions on Iran. These measures include expanding travel bans, and placing asset freezes on the people connected with the nuclear industry. According to the article “West pushing for new UN sanctions against Iran” from the BBC, “These sanctions will target senior members of the IRGC (Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps).” Their job is too oversee Iran's nuclear power program and their strategic weapons.

According to the BBC “The United States and its allies fear Iran is attempting to develop nuclear weapons. Iran insists its nuclear program is entirely peaceful.” Iran needs to be pressured into getting rid of their nuclear program and if not ridding the whole thing, coming to an agreement by renegotiating with the UN. The more severe the rounds of sanctions are the more pressure Iran will be under.

Some would argue that we do not need to be placing further sanctions on Iran or be placing any sanctions at all. They see that it will not have a good outcome, that putting further sanctions on Iran will make them upset, but that is the point, to upset and forcing them into what we want, the end of the nuclear program.
