Sanctions can lead to the capture of the government by interest groups ▫ Rahman Kahramanpour, an analyst on international issues, said in a panel sponsored by the Cadres Institute at the 19th National Conference of the Iranian Political Science Association: the sanctions in many countries form the basis for the formation of an unofficial and non-transparent economy and lead to the creation of interest groups that benefit from the circumvention of sanctions. ▫ He added: the government necessarily gives these groups a field under the terms of the sanctions, but they are gradually getting stronger and there is a danger that they will turn the government into a tool for securing their interests; A phenomenon known as "state capture". ▫ Kahramanpour, referring to the activities of groups known as "loyalists", warned: the continuation of this trend could lead to the weakening of government and sovereignty, and by strengthening the image of a weak and divided Iran, it will make the country more trapped in the cycle of war, the embargo and the naval blockade.
