En fait pour piger il faut lire l' article du New York Times.

Donc, en clair le NYT critique les entreprises qui on des contrats avec le gouvernement US ou les administrations US, et qui par ailleurs travaillent sur des contrats avec les Iraniens. (comme le developpement de champs pétroliers et gaziers).
par exemple pour Shell :
et Petrobras :.....
In 1999, for instance, Royal Dutch Shell signed an $800 million deal to develop two Iranian oil fields. Since then, Shell has won federal contract payments and grants totaling more than $11 billion, mostly for providing fuel to the American military, as well as $200 million in Export-Import loan guarantee and drilling rights to federal lands, records show.
Shell has a second Iranian development deal pending, but officials say they are awaiting the results of a feasibility study. In the meantime, the company continues to receive payments from Iran for its 1999 investment and sells gasoline and lubricants there.
Records show Shell is one of seven companies that challenged the Iran Sanctions Act and received federal benefits.
......
Bref, le NYT dit que les mesures pour l' embargo de l' Iran ne marchent pas.Among the companies on the list Congress sent to the State Department is the Brazilian state-controlled energy conglomerate Petrobras, which last year received a $2 billion Export-Import Bank loan to develop an oil reserve off the coast of Rio de Janeiro. The loan offers a case study in the competing interests officials must confront when it comes to the Iran Sanctions Act.
Despite repeated American entreaties, Petrobras had previously invested $100 million to explore Iran’s offshore oil prospects in the Persian Gulf.
