mary and secondary sanctions against any person 
that directly or indirectly supports the ballistic mis-
sile program of Iran, its state sponsorship of ter-
rorism and human rights abuses, as well as against 
any foreign person or financial institution that en-
gages in transactions or trade that support those ef-
forts.
