Ambassador Wendy Sherman fervently defended the U.S. record for protecting human rights in Iran Thursday, though the Obama administration has not sanctioned any Iranian human rights abusers since signing the Iran nuclear agreement in July.

“We have sanctions on human rights in Iran and any entities who are part of those human rights abuses in Iran. We say that forcefully all of the time,” Sherman, who was the lead negotiator for the Iran Deal, said during an event at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. “We are no holds barred on what we say about Iran.”
