In July 2020, the United States of America sought to disrupt Iran's trade and economic relations with Venezuela by issuing a seizure warrant of Iranian oil tankers, which was moving to Venezuela. The decision was based on claims that there was a link between Iran's energy revenues in the activities of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the affiliation of some oil companies with this organization, which The United States has previously placed this organization on its sanctions list for claiming to be a terrorist. Due to the importance of this issue in the national interests of our country, the legal status of the issuance of a ban on Iranian oil shipments by the United States from the perspective of international law is the main question of this article. The results of the descriptive-analytical studies of the authors confirm that the basis of this action is contrary to the fundamental principles of international law and the seizure of oil cargo and the prohibition of the free navigation of ships are in conflict with the rules of the International law of the sea, the immunity of states and also the rules of human rights.
