The FATF statement rejected the Ministry of Economy's claims. The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) issued a statement yesterday that shows that contrary to the claims of several institutions in the country, with the approval of the CFT and Palermo Conventions, there has been no change in Iran's situation. The Financial Information Center at the Ministry of Economy said yesterday: "The progress of the country's steps in 10 sections of the action plan was agreed upon by FATF members." But what we see in the new FATF statement is neither a change in Iran's situation nor a reduction in financial restrictions, but a repetition of previous demands against Iran's economy. This institution has clearly stated that Iran is not sufficiently punishing the crimes of terrorist financing and that Iran has failed to establish a financial sanctions system according to FATF standards. This is while last year, Iran approved the 2 conventions of Palermo and CFT in the Feasibility Identification Forum, and the Financial Intelligence Center has repeatedly announced that with the approval of these 2 conventions, Iran's status on the FATF blacklist can be changed.
