#4 Russia's already undermining the sanctions-- announced yesterday new energy deals signed with Iran.

[Energy Minister Sergei] Shmatko and Iranian Oil Minister Masoud Mir-Kazemi signed a "road map" outlining long-term energy cooperation Wednesday and said they would aim to form a joint bank to help fund bilateral projects and expand cooperation in natural gas deliveries and oil products.

"Sanctions will not hinder us in our joint cooperation," Shmatko said when asked about joint projects after the signing ceremony.
