Trump’s comments are clearly directed at China, which is importing more than 1 million barrels per day from Iran, said Scott Modell, CEO of consulting firm Rapidan Energy. Modell said U.S. sanctions are unlikely to have an impact on Iranian oil flowing to China unless the White House targets Beijing’s state-owned enterprises and infrastructure.

I imagine that the Iranians aren’t telling the US who they sell to and the buyers aren’t either.
