もっと早くやればよかったのにね～　　イランは、韓国を理解していない。

The financial dispute between Iran and South Korea dates back to 2018, when the United States unilaterally withdrew from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, formally called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), and started slapping economic sanctions on Iran. Before 2018, South Korea had been the third-largest buyer of Iranian oil and the top customer of Iranian condensates. The oil trade between Tehran and Seoul resulted in the accumulation of some $7 billion in Iranian oil revenues in South Korean banks. 

イランて、この$7 billion返ってくると思っているんですか（笑）？

In late May, officials from the United States and South Korea held talks over unfreezing Iranian funds held in South Korean banks, according to a South Korean daily. The talks were focused on releasing the $7 billion Iranian funds that have long been blocked in South Korean banks due to U.S. sanctions.

これは言い訳に過ぎないのが現実、というのは制裁の前に何ヶ月も猶予があり、米国的にはこの手の精算を各国にアナウンス、従い他国はその時に精算済みでこの手の問題は抱えていません。最悪今でも、＄が使えないならEUR、サウジリアル、極端な話金で支払えばいいだけです。
