In 1995 and 1997, President Clinton imposed further sanctions against Iran—which had the effect of prohibiting virtually all trade and investment activities with Iran by U.S. persons (wherever located). See Exec. Order No. 12, 957, 3 C.F.R. 332 (1995); Exec. Order No. 12, 959, 3 C.F.R. 356 (1995); Exec. Order No. 13, 059, 3 C.F.R. 217 (1997); see also 31 C.F.R. §§560.101–560.803 (2000).
