Original Note:
The President of the United States cannot unilaterally impose sanctions from the United Nations. Sanctions require support from the broader UN Security Council. https://news.un.org/en/story/2016/05/528382-un-sanctions-what-they-are-how-they-work-and-who-uses-them However, when the UN sanctions expired, the US did impose additional sanctions individually. https://apnews.com/article/iran-russia-drones-ukraine-war-87cc86db179b6bfecabaff4836422434
