“Go Dubai” is the first advice on Internet message boards by Chinese exporters laboring to work around sanctions, embargoes and blocked letters of credit (LCs) to get their products to Iran.
Dubai’s non-oil trade with China - 99% of it from China to the United Arab Emirates and ultimately destined for Iran and other countries in the Persian Gulf - had soared an astounding 47% in 2007, to a value of US$19 billion, virtually equal to the announced direct non-oil trade between China and Iran.
Dubai ties in with the message boards’ other two key elements of advice in the evolving China-Iran trade regime: “Go euro” and “Go T/T”. Go Euro as in switch to the euro, as there are fewer national sanctions that would prevent foreign banks from processing euro transactions. Go T/T as in telegraphic transfer, ie wire transfer of
funds executed confidentially through the Belgium-based Society for Worldwide Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) as an alternative to LCs.
These efforts to remove the burgeoning China-Iran trade beyond the jurisdictional reach of the United States - to the detriment of America’s European allies - are eliciting a variety of US responses.
President George W Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and the US Treasury Department’s Deputy Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Stuart Levey have all visited the UAE in recent months to call for a cutback in the UAE’s economic activity with and on behalf of Iran. As a result, Dubai has apparently halted incorporation of new Iran-related companies and discouraged letter of credit Iran business by its local banks (the UAE branches of international banks had already discontinued the practice).
As an apparent shot across the bow, the Treasury Department also deployed an official sanction (not just a warning) against Future Bank, an enterprise in the neighboring emirate of Bahrain, a bank co-owned by the blacklisted Melli Bank of Iran.
