The impact of Trump's sanctions inside Iran

Since President Trump decided to walk away from the Iran nuclear deal in May of last year, tensions between the two nations have steadily increased and punishing economic sanctions have been reimposed. But while those sanctions are intended to hurt the Iranian government, everyday people are also paying a price: over the past 12 months, the price of staples like chicken are up by almost 80%, and some life-saving medications have become unavailable. Imtiaz Tyab reports.

Each weekday morning, "CBS This Morning" co-hosts Gayle King, Anthony Mason and Tony Dokoupil deliver two hours of original reporting, breaking news and top-level newsmaker interviews in an engaging and informative format that challenges the norm in network morning news programs.

[StewieGriffin]

Blame Iran for the sanctions which America and Europe doesn't want any new nations to have nuclear weapons.

Meanwhile the glaciers are melting and the Amazon is on fire.

I really hope that poor child makes a full recovery. Iran's government has the power to make that happen. The fault here does not lie with the US.

[mossyhornhunter]

How about everyone takes care of their selves and not rely on governments to do it ?

[maryczarnik]

The US people are not responsible for taking care of the people in the World. We are 23 trillion in debt and it keeps going up every second and have lots of people that crying in the the US that the media does not show.

[CapitanoGUC-gfel]

What about the sanctions under Bush, Clinton, Obama and last mit Not least Allbright ???

[deplorablegal]

Sorry don't care much about Iranians, do care about AMERICANS!

[tjthomas]

shouldn't the title be "The impact of Iran's nuclear program and human rights violations"?

[Taqi]

Dear Iranian plz buy it from us Pakistan, , Indirectly..

[AuthenticHadith]

Iran didn't expect that. That's their problem now.

[omidnorozi]

Sanctions doesn't hurt Irans government Even a bit. Anytime they go low on money they just move up the price of goods for ordinary people and make up for it. The sanction's are just hurting Iranian youth and children's who wants to flourish but can't, in the past there were just old conservative iranian that hated US but now young people are also hating the US bc they're seeing how the west is crushing their life day after day. Iranians are educated people and they know the cause of their suffering is only the US and these sanctions aren't doing anything except making more and more people hate US.the high Ranking official of iran won't feel a thing it's just us who's hurting and we know who to blame. Anyone i see in my daily life is counting seconds for war to just get it over with bc this isn't the life we supposed to have. Our generation is ruined bc of you.

Well that doctor with the Gucci scarf seems to be doing well.

[mamurshed]

They can bring any medicine but they should pay more not to spend the money on terrorism don’t lie please

[voiceofreason]

Now do a Yemen video where Hesbollah operate with Iranian funding and show the streets lined with hundreds of dead children with clothes heavier than their wearers. Then show Hesbollah subjection of Palestinians, paying families for martyrs. No Iranian will go on camera and say they oppose these terrible sanctions because deep down they want their freedom and their country back at any price. I admire their bravery and sacrifice. Better no price is paid at all. That isn't the world we live in.

[Michael-yliq]

Please retitle "The Impact on Iranians due to their Leadership refusing to give up desire to have Nuclear Weapons and funding terrorist groups"

[peterbabooram]

Where are the Iranian neclear weapons ?, People are suffering because of silly accusations

[azzir]

Title of this propaganda piece should be "The effect of Iran's aggression against the world on the Iranian people."

[harveysymes]

If they went to war, where would the USA have there staging grounds? Saudi Arabia maybe?
Because if so The US would just use there bombers and airstrike assets for a bombing campaign depending on US leadership.
