Gold trader gets time served in Iran sanctions case that strained US-Turkey relations
Reza Zarrab, a businessman who admitted helping Iran evade U.S. sanctions through gold trades with a Turkish bank, will not face additional prison time after cooperating with U.S. investigators. His case strained U.S.-Turkey relations as Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan publicly opposed the allegations, claiming they were part of a U.S. plot against Turkey.
